| Painting alloy rims? Time to start riceing out the car again
Since i have those 240sx alloy rims sitting in the shed, im thinking of sanding off the center cap nissan emblem so its flat and smooth center caps, then some how painting all of the alloy rims black.
Any easy way to do it? cheap way would be spray paint i guess. Or does anyone know if theres a generic center cap without the nissan logo for this rim? if there is then i wouldnt really have to sand it down and paint.
Thats the cap, so if i sand it down far enough the emblem should go away, but ill look aweful without repainting the entire rim.  |
