The NISMO log on those wheels is much MUCH easier b they are large block letters. It would still need to be done by hand but it wouldn't drive someone insane tryna do it.

Your best bet is to find a pinstriper or bodyshop that is willing to take the job
A pinstriper is the way to go. The black on the top of my shiftknob was done by a pinstriper. Before and after pics. Your wheels look nice!
