Default thinking about

had one of my center cap stickers come off on my front left wheel while driving. would it be tacky if I put some cobra center caps im not too sure if they sell them but I have Found some plain black vinyl ones or a running pony what should i do? I cant find the original center caps for sale that came with the wheel. looks cheap and ugly with it gone!!

if your gonna do it to one of them- you have to do it to them all. some people think badging cars with tags that they arent look tacky, but i guess its alright if its just on the rims and nowhere else... just dont go removing your GT emblems and replacing them with cobras on the side of your car...

No matter what you do, someone on here may call you a poser....Those guys with the GT500 front end conversions caught hell for a while. Even though the car looks great! Its your canvas, paint it however you like. Car looks great, regardless!

Good luck

I think asking if it looks tacky and asking for Permission are two totally seperate things. I'm leaning towards the cobra ones FIT! its so small people cant see it anyways with the chrome blinding them.

Make Your own custom wheel centerstickers.Heres what I did.
Got a small piece of black mylar sticker material. Make a color print of your chosen design, photo or whatever.Cut out the design with an Xacto knife. Get a small piece of clear mylar sticker material.Peel back of clear sticker off and place cut out design onto it.Thenapply the clear sticker over the black sticker.You then cut the whole thing round to size needed.I got the sticker material from a sign shop,but You can also get it at art supply stores.
They have been on my car 2 years,no peeling
