    I like the look of the OEM wheel covers but mine are scratched up pretty good from the previous owner. The alloy wheels underneath look good too but have some scratches from the covers and I need to buy some hub covers if I go that route. Today I decided to paint the covers black with some plasti-dip since it's easier removable if I want to go back to stock. So what option do you prefer? image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    I've been thinking about these options myself recently as I have the stock 16s off for the winter.

    For you the cheapest and easiest is to plasti dip the covers black. I think that looks well on your silver car, it continues the black and silver theme.

    I like the stock better but, I am a stock kind of guy.

    Looks great! I thought about pulling the paint off the center cap area but I prefer all black. I'm going to look into getting black lug nuts as well.
