Center cap modification
The center caps on my brother 93 F150 Flareside were showing there age and needed to be redone but new plastic inserts are almost $20 a piece,so I went a cheaper route and covered them in vinyl.

He chose to do them in carbon fiber,but there so many color choices you could do it however you wanted.I also chose to paint the whole center cap because the chrome was flaking and it was scratched up from the lug wrench.I used Dupli color adhesion promoter and then Dupli color wheel paint,graphite in color.Next on the list is to refinish the rims by striping them,polishing, and re clear coating them
