Default Black Center Caps

Just got my center caps & lug nuts back from the powder coaters.

The chrome lug nuts were 21mm instead of the stock 19mm which meant I had to have a socket & extension in the back with the jack etc. As a result, the chrome nuts have been damaged (end cap breaking off) from using too short a socket.

I was going to stick the "American Racing" disc back on the center cap but instead I think I'll make some red bowties to go there.

I'll replace the chrome valve caps with black ones tomorrow.

If I did I'll be stopped by every cop around. LOL

They already look twice when passing. With blacked windows they'll think I'm a boy racer! Although, I think they're actually impressed. LOL

I like it, very clean and uniform. Not sure I like that red and blue pinstripe on those rims though...I never really noticed it before until now! lol.
