Yea, thats looks bad in the picture. If the centercap were painted as well and if it were decent paint, it might look ok. There is still no way i would do it to mine.

Haha no harm done, i did that job in a hurry just for my Table that i made.

If i were to do it on my wheels id obviously make sure it was of better quality and yea center caps deffinately need to be done. im sure itd look way better with the lip left silver as well.

cheers

Nope, sorry - don't like them all black - and that finish looks baaaad..

Black centres & polished lips on the other hand? way cooler :D

If I were going to do the work of refinishing them I would get some Wurth silver and give them a nice factory paint job. Or get them polished to shiny aluminum and then carefully spray a coat of the favorite wheel paint over them in clear. Probably a Wurth product. That would look incredible.

Enjoy!
