    Can I make bottlecaps look good?

    Don't really have the cash for some bbs rs rims or ronal turbos... any way i can freshen up my bottlecaps?

    Color match the pathetic lip?

    Repaint gunmetal or all white?

    They are just looking trashy and my card needs to look better for e30 picnic and leavenworth cruise.

    Or someone could trade me their wheels haha.

    Space them out 20mm and maybe throw on some studs.

        Either that or stock ride height. Bottle caps are too sunk on a lowered car because camber.

          Black centers look ok. My snow tires are on caps and I couldn't stand to have bone stock wheels on the car even just for winter. Changes it up enough to look decent.

          EDIT: This doesn't really show anything, but I'll take it as an opportunity to whore a pic of the best car I ever owned (r.i.p.):

                I can attest to this.

                  Paint part of the sidewall a matching silver - make them look like 16" ;)

                      I tried searching for KAmotors, could anyone post some bottlecaps stanced right? I like how they look, and want to see someone acutally pulling them off (spaced in the rear and low)

                        Bottlecaps leave you with a hand or two behind your back. The best you can do is keep them clean and push them out as far as possible. Anything else is just pissing in your grandmothers flowerbed.

                          Make them all nice a shiny. Make sure the center cap decals are on par.
                          Put on some fat tires, space them out like space jam.

                            all white looks sweet, and if you paint everything but the face black you get a pretty different look
