Too good man you really saved me with that shit..as u can see i even made a new sig haha

And yeah after i repo listed then, they look chrome...i love it

[BrysonB]

So what do you do when you don't have extra $$ to throw at center caps?
You just make your own..



Mostly did it for fun to see how it would look..
I do plan on buying te real ones,
So save "that's ghetto" pls haha

Looks great Buddy, really !

Have you considered going full white on the wheels, it will make them look an inch bigger.

I did it to mine, everybody thinks its a 19" set.

heres some pics




Damn I really envy you color combo, white with tan interior !! Congrats keep up the good work !

^ hey thanks man, i have seen your car before and loved it, i like the little stripe on the lip you did aswell with the chrome bbs logo, all white looks amazing and bigger like you said, people are dumb though some guy thought mine were 20's..
If i didnt love the reflection of the bolts and spokes in the lip, I'd probably go all white

Thanks for the compliments

I know, at first I left the outter lip polished as well, I didn`t want to give up on the polished look entirely. Then I decided to vynil wrap it white and ended up liking the results, the good thing about these wheels is that you have plenty of options.

heres how I intendend to use mine at first



You said you headlights are from ebay, but the halos are extremely bright, which ones did you bought ? Also which coilovers are you on ?

take care buddy.

Looks great! I like your all white ones better for your car
And yes i love how theres so many different ways to customize these wheels

Yes they are the ebay's, but only barely. I gutted out the cheap halogen projectors and retrofitted in Acura tsx xenon projectors, and while i was in there i fitted ccfl angel eyes that are also from eBay.

And the coilovers are also eBay haha, they're JOM, they run about $500, they don't get the car as low as mine is in the front, i had to trim this metal sleeve that sits in the hub to allow the coilover to sit lower, also the helper springs in the front are cut a little bit..

The ride is great

And detail of my wannabe caps haha (temporary)

[JE BMW]

Oh i see..what did you use?

[BrysonB]

Oh i see..what did you use?

I started off with this..

It's an amber plastic cap that goes inside an Audi A4's headlight for the turn signal.
I used to have an a4 and i did many "clear corner" mods for other a4 owners but popping these amber caps out.

Anyways these were perfect shape and diameter for center caps, so i spray painted them gloss red, used white electrical tape for the letters, and sharpies for the details.
I also dremmeled off the excess part of the caps so they were flat and would fit into my center caps

[JE BMW]

oh damn..lol thats nice. i need some caps for some other old school bbs wheels i just bought, so looking for options.
Caps for them are 100 bucks, but not spending that kinda money on caps.

Seriously! Thats what im sayin', they're expensive..and think i could of even got bbs stickers made instead of doing what i did..so there are alternatives

[JE BMW]

yea..and for what? so an a hole can just come and take them? already got my 2 roundels stolen.hood one one day trunk one a week later at diff places

I just realized caps from mothers polish fit snug in my rims. gonna buy some more and then put bbs stickers on them..
