Can't wait to do something about these center caps, little things like that BUG ME soooo bad! They'll look very hot with some black center caps, blend it all together you know? Planning on painting the calipers pretty soon... Doing cams in February so rotors wont be for a while... and yea 5SPD, I get that alllll the time.... "So it's black right?" Ummmm no look again "Oh crap, I didn't even know...." lol

I'll recommend paint them black, for obvious reasons either gotta be black or red don't know much else would look right on our color. I wanna do rotors also, some zinc plated slotted/cross drilled really pop behind the wheels. Expect more pictures when you do those center caps they make or break an all black wheel!

Appreciate it man I think it blends well myself also use the brush on kits they are self leveling and come with enough to do each probably 20 times. Every one of mine has at least 2 coats and I barely used any of the can.

Which kit did you use? I heard Duplicolor sucks from some people, but heard many people say it's very good.

I just picked up a $15 Duplicolor kit from O'Reilly's, works for me just fine! If they had bad luck with them I'm betting they didn't clean them properly. Just get some wire mesh or a good scrub brush to and scrub them and use brake cleaner before and after. Did the trick for me!
