    Poll: Which center cap for a black wheel

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Greetings,

    Trying to decide if I should do anything to the center caps of my new Flik Artics (mounted pics to come this weekend...). Anyone done this on a black wheel (weak photoshop attempts below)?

    Also what procedures work well if I do paint them?

    original:


    OEM mod per Distinct on AW:


    Paint OEM - my favorite if I could paint it gloss black and keep the silver rings


    Paint the existing Flik...

    I like the 3rd one but paint the whole thing black w/ the rings staying chrome/silver.
    Do you have a need for speed? Then drive it like you stole it!

    Obviously, not the best paint job in the world, but I think the black centers w/ the rings the best...



    If you're afraid to paint the new wheels, why not try black vinyl? If you heat it up, it will stretch pretty easily. Let me know if you want to try it...
