painting my wheels

[TheRoadVirus]

Got any pics of the whole truck? The wheels look good, but it's hard to really judge the whole vehicle without a pic.

thanks for the compliments by the way!

How about some grabber green lug nuts.

How about some grabber green lug nuts.

ooo, i might like that better than the orange stripe on a radius of the rim

 

[surewhynot]

OH NOES! Not another one! LMAO!

 

[tomtoc]

i have nothing on my truck that is grabber green
...just a diff cover that is "trashcan blue" - kinda a mistake

...but i do think it would look good. black wheels and a white truck are super clean. it would give it a little pop of color and really stand out. go find some lug nuts at a junkyard or something and give it a shot.

I like your blue dif cover, I had my valve covers in blue, but had to take em off and repaint and all I had was black lol. My 88 Wrangers big round carbed intake was Ol' Ford Blue. People were like wtf lol.

 

[tomtoc]

it was supposed to be more "truck blue", but didn't work out that way. i just wanted some protection from more rusting

I'm getting me one of these when I swap axles.

Dude you should get one of the see through diff covers! Those are sweet!!

Lol, I'll pass if you're talking to me. It just wouldn't look right to me.

 

[Skandocious]

I think it would be a lot of fun to see the gears spinning and oil sloshing!! Maybe that's just me...

 

[surewhynot]

I just wonder if it stays clear for a long time.

OOO good point! It's made by a reputable company (Transdapt) so if it ever developed a permanent haze they might give you a new one...

 

[TheRoadVirus]

I'm not saying it wouldn't be cool, but who's going to actually see them spinning and gear oil sloshing under my truck? When I'm driving? Lol. Plus the Roush one adds strength by adding stability to the caps. And it looks pimp. Lol.

 

[Skandocious]

And it looks pimp. Lol.

But who's going to see it under your truck?

 

[surewhynot]

if I ever developed a permanent haze

Better quit them hippie ways!

I was thinking of it scratching also. I know lexan scratches easy.

 

[TheRoadVirus]

I will. Lol.

I just meant it'd look cooler on a lifted truck (p.s. yours) compared to one like mine that I want to lower. That one doesn't have the additional strength factor, either.

 

[Skandocious]

Awesome!

EDIT: That didn't come out right. You know what I mean.
