Cee245 742 #1 Posted May 30, 2018 I finally pulled out my plastic wheel covers and I would like some opinions on what color to paint them. I do have the chrome WH inserts for the wheel caps. I want to paint the rims WH red and the plastic caps silver/red/chrome/black Paint would be from a rattle can off the shelf at Ace hardware. Undecided.

Cee245 742 #3 Posted May 30, 2018 Thanks for the reply. That would look nice. Was thinking of red wheels even if I go chrome on the caps. Someone painted a "d" with that combo and it looked good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cee245 742 #4 Posted June 3, 2018 Busy day! Finally Planted garden, mowed, church and cleaning out the vehicles. And... I think the chrome cap I test painted looks terrible. I'm not an expert painter but I know some tricks. Can't seem to do chrome rattle can paint to my liking. Looks like they will be red or black? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hhmmmmm..... Yeah I've had that same issue. I have had a hard time finding a chrome paint that I like the look of... Then it depends on the piece it's going on too. Not sure how far you've gotten with the process yet but I like the look of compliments from one color to another so I'd do the rims red to contrast the black tires then the caps a regular bright silver with maybe red logos?
