    Kopi/Alpina wheel mod opinions

    I have some of the kopis that have the five lug casting but i would like to run them capless quite often. I want some opinions from people on how they would look if painted the area inside the cap black like the older alpina wheels.
    I like the way the older ones look with the black centers and it would also conceal the "five-luggness" of running them capless because the darker color would hide the detail of the inside. Of course i would do it so that no black could be seen when caps are installed.

    Five-luggish kopi



    Example 1



    Example 2


    Would this be just ugly and a waste of time?

            I say do it. Caps are for those that are embarrassed about their nuts. Is that you? Answer truthfully Joshy...

              So general consensus is that I should just go for it then? Anyone have a pshop of what it would look like on a car with capless kopis?

                    Hey, you're talking to the guy who cut the center splines off of his Remembers so the caps couldn't be installed.

                    If I had Kopis, I'd probably toss the caps outright.

                      Ok the holes of the wheels and on the side off the spokes paint them white, to match the color of your car. Just do not paint the lips, tape them off. It looks real good
