Thats a shame, would be cool to be able to order custom colors on the lip.

lol true on that. but i wanna try for the width, lip wasn't all a big thing for me and it's always the frosting on the cake. i wanna play with how wide they can go this time without having the rims stick out or requiring some flares. hehehehehe.
