Default Inexpensive wheel mod.

I know it might seem a bit ghetto, but if you are unsure about spending $500+ for a new set of rims and wheels when you think yours are still good... try this:

Spraypaint your hubcaps... it doesnt really look that bad. Check it out.



What do you think? (I have since changed wheels...)

I had those before on my 9-spoke as well. I was inspired by Cheif Thundercloud. Anyway, did you add paint adhesion spray for plastic products? I didn't with mine and it started to chipped and peeled off . When I get a chance I'll get some paint remover spray and do it properly. :oops: Also the 7-spoke or Donut hole xB hubcaps would look good painted black (dont paint the SCION logo). The donot hub would look similar to our steel wheels.

I did that with my hubcaps in gunmetal. Looks 100% better on the darker car.
