Swapped out the Gemini hubcaps for center caps

[Ssmtsx]

Only cost $16! I think it looks a lot better. I’ll put the hubcaps back on before any long trip.

I wouldn't have guessed the black cap would look good, but I like the contrast. Works with the dark lug holes and the dual spokes.

Damn that white looks good, can't wait till mine arrives.

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to do the same if I ever get my white MY.

Ordered a set from Amazon, thank you! Definitely an acceptable wheel choice now.

I do wish those were the color of the Gemini wheels.

Did you take the wheels somewhere to be painted?

I did it myself, dipped them.

Did you have to take them off the car? Im interested in making mine black once I get my car, but I dont want to take them off. I'm thinking of settling for darker Gemini Covers.

I didnt take them off. I also dipped the gemini caps in 2 different patterns to see how they look. Did not go for perfection on the cap I just wanted to see the look. I am going to dip all 4 now in all black and will use them only for road trips.

Ssmtx, How did you get the dual-spoke design?

They’re just the standard Gemini wheels without hubcaps.

Were you asking how he painted the Gemini wheel covers to have the black only cover the silver, and left the glossy grey alone?

He used plasti dip which self cuts itself. So anywhere you have an edge on the surface you are spraying, it will be a separate cut of "paint" and you can just peal it off when done.

He either did that, or taped the glossy parts before spraying.

I just overlooked the fact that they had wheel covers. Are those for efficiency? The underlying wheels, especially with the black accessory kit, are MUCH nicer!

That dual tone thing you did looks pretty nice! Anyway you could throw them on and post a pic? Still haven’t seen any pic with both rim and hubcaps blacked out.

I second this request. This is what I was thinking of doing originally.
