I've seen on the boards that some of you have painted your logos (front and back) but I'm not buyin rims so how about the logos on the rims? can you paint those to match also? How?

James in OK did that on his wheels. He would probably be able to give you an idea.

Which caps do you have? I just took a paint brush and basically dry brushed the paint over the oval so that it just covered the surface and didn't get into the lettering. Then just sprayed it w/ a clear sealer to protect the paint. But yes, you can paint the logo on the wheel.

huh? i dont understand.
i took the center caps off the rim and was looking at the logo and it has like a rubbery plastic cover over the actual symbol. did you just paint over that? how'd that turn out?

and oh yeah, ive got the 7 spoke factory alloys '98 (15")

I had diff. rims than you did, there was not rubbery cover over the symbol, mine were just embossed into the cover. I'll see if I have any pics...

Here's a pic. The oval was plain silver like the rest of the rim to start, I made it blue. Nothing like yours though. If you could snap a pic of what yours look like, maybe I can offer some insight though.
