    Default bored so i painted......

    my hubcaps on my dd..lol
    i mean the original silver was gettin kinda crappy so i resprayed them satin black..
    the only think im thinkin now is should i paint the steelies a different color like maybe silver or something to make the hubcaps stand out more?
    feel free to recommend a color to paint the steelies..
    btw this is my DD so i never plan on bying rims for it..lol just got bored..
