Hey all. I did a search on this and was surprised that noone else had posted about it. Maybe it's so basic and I'm just that slow. :)

I have the 13" Minilites (I believe? They look just like this, and are supposedly came from the factory with the car.), and they're going to be painted black.

That leaves me with silver centre caps. (These, specifically.) What is the best way to get these black? Is it even possible? :)

Cheers all,
Mike.

Paint would be the normal approach.

:errr: Okay, thanks. Kinda figured if nothing else, paint would work. Anything to avoid? I mean, normal off-the-shelf paint, or auto paint? (Does it matter?) And, finally, what about the insert decal?

I'm just indecisive. I guess I should dip them then, and get over with it. :(
