painted steelies and beauty bands

well I have been playing around with this idea for a long time. I finally bit the bullet. before anyone even says, I am looking into center caps.

old look VVV



new look VVV



I popped off the hub caps and cleaned the wheels. I repainted them a flat black. I used an interesting trick to not get paint on the tires. it was interesting to say the least. I then popped on some old school beauty bands. here are some other random shots during the process.









I know several people have done this on here and actually got the idea from this forum. I never liked the fact that my black car had silver hub caps. I thought heavily about just painting the hub caps but this way I can go back if I don't like it after a while.

I am considering some chrome center caps as well. still thinking on this as it is a bit tricky since there are no direct fit parts for a center cap that I konw of.
