I painted my stock hubcaps black. I need to pain the steelies too, but I would never leave the hubcaps off. That just looks like ghetto crap.

thank ya.... and do me a favor hide them dam UB tubes
simple L or U aluminum channeling works great... in my opinion... showing bulbs does look rice nothing personal... i just hate seeing bulbs stick out like that...

its just like steel chaneling. it hides the bulbs as well as protecting them from road debri..
find at any homedepo , lowes around the screws/bolts and some steel...
they got it in L shape and a U shape... i prefere the U for the side channeling cause its stronger if ya GRIND it along something L channeling else wear cause you can cut small slits in it and bend it around to the proper shape to hide all angles infront...
