Lookin' good. Now sand down and polish up the raised areas and they would be killer!

I think they should look good. What paint did you use?

Actually, I bought the wheels with black paint already on them. The guy had used outdoor grill paint, which I found really funny.

When I repaint them, I plan on using something with a little more gloss.

I also have to give credit where it is due. Thanks WillJones, I totally snaked your idea after seeing your sig a couple days ago.

$50 is a good price, I just looked at some of those for $200 here locally from a 91 RS camaro.

Ya I've been looking around for center caps, but I don't really know what I'm looking for, or what a fair price for a set of 4 runs.

I've also been debating chrome or black center caps.

centercaps.com has all the different styles that will work. I just bought one from there for my new spare that I am refinishing right now. I am glad I could be some inspiration. I don't care how many guys on here do it, because I haven't ever seen them on a truck out here so thats all the matters to me.
