Default steel wheels

What do you guys do to dress up your stock steel wheels? I just purchased a 2000 Civic EX 2dr and the plastic wheel covers look like crap. I took them off and for now, can't afford rims. I cleaned up the wheels and repainted them black, but they still look plain. Does anyone have any pictures of some creative solutions for these wheels?

Thanks,
Dale

I would recommend spending the time you would thinking about it, saving up and buying some rims the same size as your current wheels. For like 100 a piece you can get something decent.

Steelies are steelies. Dont try to make them look cool. Trying to make steelies cool makes your car look worse. I LOVE MY STEELIES!!! check my gallery. they actually dont look that bad on a 92-95 civic. Im saving for wheels though.
