Your opinion on painting hub caps?
2 Attachment(s)
So I plan on painting some old stock 4x4 rims(15x7) semi-gloss black with a gloss clear or metallic clear coat.
Now for the center cap, see below.(recently washed) https://blazerforum.com/forum/attach...ine=1360978480 Should I also paint these to match or would you leave them? They looked okay on the other stock black rims(15x6) I have but those were faded and not in the best condition so it matched. I looked a bit closer at the inserts and I think they look fine and I will just tape them off. Side note GM wants $33.42 each for the insert. |
Coming from someone who has painted just about everything on her truck... DO ITTT.
Plus you wouldn't want shiny like new rims and faded center caps. |

I will actually be using a paint gun as the paint is cheaper and should be faster so rattle cans are out. I'm thinking on going for just a gloss clear coat as the metallic is a bit touchy to get right and keep clear so I have read. So after 6 hours of work I have everything primed.
