Tons of information on the subject along with pictures can be found here. But word of advise, spell caliper correctly when you try it or you won't have much success.

Not bagging on you, just giving you a hard time for something that I felt was somewhat of an oxymoron

OK, you are going to paint them black and put yellow decals on them, but you don't like to see stuff sticking out obnoxiously?

well, considering my car is yellow and all the highlights are black (stripes, oem plastic inside and out, interior, etc)...they looked very subtle and classy with a set of 20in foose nitrous II's when i photochopped it all together...
