by the way, if you paint the centercaps without sanding... after a couple weeks you can chip the paint off the chrome with your thumb nail.
 
Looks like you're using sandpaper. But if you were going to have them powder coated, you could have had them burnt off in a burn off oven. Then powder coated. FYI

Nice!!! I'll do the caps as well. I like how your rims arn't too glossy, how many coats of clear coat did you use?

If I wasn't buying new tires I would have gone that route. Plus it gives me something to do. :D

I didn't care about over spray on the tires as I'm getting new ones in a few weeks.
 
I like the centercaps done a LOT better, and like I said, you can chip the paint off the chrome. Other than that, they look VERY familiar! lol

nice work!
