Would you rather see a car with shinny/chrome wheel covers/hubcaps on or just bare steel wheels? Just the other day I saw a car with a nasty, cheap looking set of chrome hubcaps on. They looked really fake even if I would have seen the car a distance away. I would have rather seen the car with just plain black steel wheels instead, but that's just me. What is the point of looking fake and cheap, when obviously anyone who looks at the car will know in a minute (I had chrome hubcaps on my car for a little while until I got some chrome rims and I now realize how cheap chrome hubcaps look).

Is there a way to get black paint off of painted wheels? The car that I bought a while ago has the wheels painted black. I really want them to just be normal silver (not chrome) wheels. Is there a way to get the paint off or do the wheels have to be painted the silver color? I don't want them to look like cheap silver plastic, but instead what is called "crystal silver" on the ATS website.
Can you use sandpaper to get chrome off wheels? I have an opportunity to get some nice rims very cheap on account of they are in bad condition with chrome flaking off. I want to take off the chrome and repaint them (probably with wheel paint from a can). I've read you can sandblast the chrome off or remove it chemically but I'm wondering if you can just get some wet sandpaper and rub it off by hand gradually increasing the grain till smooth. I know it doesn't sound easy but it does sound simple (not to mention cheap). Is this possible? Can I get good results this way?

MB Wheels? I am looking to buy chrome plated wheels, and have been looking online. I found a site (discouttiredirect.com) that sells MB Wheels. They seem to be quite cheap, and was wondering if anybody knows anything about them? Are they a quality product? Are wheels all about equal, or could there be a big difference? Thanks for any help!! To clarify, "MB Wheels" is the name brand. I don't know if that is to stand for Mercedez as the first response implied or not. I was just wondering about the quality/reputation of the MB Wheels brand.
Machined Face vs. Chrome? I'm in the market of buying new wheels for my car and have noticed that machined face rims are about $175 cheaper than chrome ones.

first car~ Which is best? I'm a guy, and i'm going to get a used car (or a cheap new one like Toyota Yaris or Nissan Versa) but im really interested in several cars~ a 2007 Blue Honda Civc EX coupe with 39k miles for $11997, a 2002 Silver Lexus ES300 with heated leather seats with 90k miles for $10,951 a 2003 White Lexus ES 300 with heated leather seats with 121k miles 15% tinted windows and factory chrome wheels for $7000, a 2000 Honda Civc EX with 5sp manual (a huge plus for me) with 92k miles and factory spoiler, custom chrome and black wheels and 15% tinted windows for $6995. I saw all of them, they are all in good condition, a few if any scratches, clean carfax history (all) and smooth and it seems reliable. They are all from private sellers or well-known used car dealerships in my area (not garages or junk yards)
Did I make a dumb mistake? My car was getting ready to break down so I had to get a new one. However, instead of buying something practical and cheap I went and spent $22,500 on a 06 Lexus IS250 with 18" chrome wheels and a spoiler included. I could have used this money on getting top and bottom veneers for my teeth. My teeth are slightly crooked and I have always wanted that nice bright white and straight smile.Veneers are quite expensive along with some other dental work. Am I shallow?

I drive a 1990 Cadillac Seville , this is Chapel Hill/ Durham NC area.. its white with a red line on both sides with 18" chrome wheels e&g grille 1941 hood goddess tinted windows and a nice sound system.. its really pimped but the problem is that from upclose its obvious to see that the paint is chipping and its old so the paint has faded.

When you were younger or even now, what car or truck was your absolute favorite? I've been a mini motor head since my teens. Raced powder puff on dirt tracks and drag raced at a strip down by Cincinnati. In the lat 60's and early 70's it was some what intimidating seeing a girl show up to drag race but after beating a couple of guys that openly ridiculed me a bond happened. What were favorite vehicles owned by you and why? What vehicle was your least favorite? My favorite was a 1969 Cevy SS with a huge engine (gas was so cheap in 71) I also owned a 67 Pontiac Lemans with a decent engine, traded up to the Chevy SS. 1950 Ford short bed pick up in baby blue with wide tires and nice chrome wheels. Didn't race that one though. My least favorite was a 70 Dodge Charger with the hidden headlights. Those darn things malfunctioned all the time. It didn't have a huge horsepower engine but sounded a whole lot faster than it was. Every darn time I came to a stop light, some guy would want to race. Just shook my head no. That was in 74 and married that year. That husband didn't like racing so I hung it up. Even though I'm older, would still love to strap on a helmet and give it a go down that quarter mile strip one more time. Strange Brew....wow I bow and give you respect friend. Considered myself fearless in my teens and early 20's but saw too many friends get hurt in Demolation Derbys. I always had this need for speed and like the fast track:-) tb163...Gosh the Chevy Chevelle and SS's were so awesome in the 60's! My brother in law taught me how to drive a 4 speed in his 65 Chevelle SS which was no easy feat cause that car screamed. He was very patient with me and had me shifting and clutching smothly in less than an hour. oops meant tbo163 How in the world will I ever choose BA! Bill, oldman and gmgyp55 I'm absolutely have be drooling over the cars/trucks you've owned. Really dislike leaving BA up to the comunity to decide because there's sso many great car mentionied here by everyone. oooooooo i hade mai Ur OOWew ri w rgR AURYW- The last entry on additional details was not made by me. Some how/some way someone could have hacked into this question. What a shame. It's so easy to determine that the grammer/spelling was certainly not mine.
Wheel covers? Buy, or no buy? Okay, I have a 1995 Saturn SC1. I want to add new wheels on it, but they are worth more than what the car is worth. So I was looking at wheel covers from the website www.shop.wheelsrims.net for 15" wheels. They are chrome, or as it says. Has anyone bought wheel covers from this site? Are they going to fall off, does the chrome look really cheap and fake, like Wal-Mart fake, are they very weak plastic, can i kick them and not dent them, can I feel some durability, etc. Here are the wheel covers I want; tell me if they are good please. Honest opinions please! But, by the way, where do the lugnuts go, I don’t see where they go? Do these even need lugnuts? http://shop.wheelsrims.net/inventory-719... Thank you. Promise to give best answer no matter what! Whoops, I didn't copy the site right. Here it is. These are the wheels I want. Do they look tough? Please answer as many as above as possible! 10 points promise! http://shop.wheelsrims.net/inventory-7191.html
14" Spare Wheel Covers? I'm sure it happens to everyone, but while driving my poser mobile today 2 of my cheapie hubcaps popped off, they are now gone. Call me cheap but I don't want to buy a whole new set, unless I have to. Does anyone know where they sell individual wheel covers? I checked ebay, no luck.... I lost 14 inch KT950 fake chrome wheel covers. Probably a stupid question but I know I'm no the only one wondering.... Thanks!

buying wheels online? I live in san diego, where's the cheapest place to find some stock chrome rims for a honda civic 97. I've heard online but haven't found much. thanks!
where should I sell my rims? I have several sets of luxury chrome rims for cars, these chrome rims retail for anywhere between $5,000 and $9000 each set, they are Davin wheels and are some very expensive rims, I want to sell this on ebay, but I'm sure that I won't get much for them because people look for cheap stuff at ebay, I want to get at least half of what they are worth, any suggestions please??
What aftermarket mods make a ZX3 look better? I just bought a well taken care charcoal gray 04' ZX3 from a minister. I'm looking for tasteful ideas on how to make it more stylish. No body kits as I want a refined tone-downed look and I'm not looking to race. So far I'm considering projected halogen headlights.(Like Mazda lights). I think they would give the car a updated look but I haven't seen any in person. They cost $100, but I think they would add resale value unlike many other mods. Looking at the vinyl smoke overlays for the rear tail-lights considering they are cheap so I can throw out if I don't like them. I have chrome alloy wheels; but wouldn't mind gray rims.
I am in the process of buying a new car and turning in a lease. I assumed that when I turned in the lease and? they did the appraisal that they were assessing if there was any excess wear and tear at that point in time. Then comes time to sign and I get this paper that says I agree to be sent a bill when GMAC finally comes to the dealership to go over my vehicle should they find any issues. This totally freaked me out as I want to have the option to get any issues fixed on my own and for much cheaper if not free. I was assured they are not "nit picky" but I really don't feel good about this especially after reading a few horror stories online. I have signed all paperwork from dealership but am waiting for them to get the vehicle I want from another dealership in another state which may be tomorrow or Friday. My car is at dealership and they have given me a loaner so that I don't add any miles to my lease turn in since they have marked it all down on their paperwork. Here's my question, at what point am I bound by these contracts i have signed, when is the car actually mine? The salesman had mentioned yesterday that it's not mine until I actually drive off the lot and I can change my mind once it gets here. Is this true? Can I just go in there tomorrow and call the whole thing off? I feel bad for wasting their time and I got a really good deal but I don't want to end up getting a bill for a couple thousand dollars. The damage I am worried about it all four of my chrome wheels were lighting scratched in a circle shape on their face when I got new tires. Tire place admitted fault and will fix but haven't yet. I wrecked the car and had a friend of a friend fix it because I thought he'd do a good job...he was horrible. He swirled the paint on one door really bad (it's a black car), there is a gap (because he didn't use the GM parts he was supposed to use) that is larger than normal between door and front fender, the paint job on bumper cover is horrid with drip marks on top under each headlight... He said he will fix anything they have an issue with but how can he if we don't know what they'll notice? Yeah I've read some horror stories online about GMAC's lease inspections. I'm taking my car back tomorrow, getting that stuff fixed and then I'll take it back to dealer when and only when they give me a written appraisal noting the exact condition. Yeah I've read some horror stories online about GMAC's lease inspections.

QUESTION ABOUT SHOCKS ON CAR! PLS HELP? So i have a isuzu axiom 2003. I got it checked up earlier the day at ken towery's and at first they said it will only cost me 79 dollars each, but then later they realized its a different kind of shock i need and they have to actually order it directly from isuzu and it cost 189 each for front and 99 each for rear. Do you think its cheaper somewhere else? Anyway, the problem is i dont have the money to get it fixed ryt now. And they said it wont be safe to drive it, i'm really worried. Can i get away with driving it for a month or so without any further damage? And also the car is paid off, i've had caskets replaced, brake pads, and tires and now the shocks. I'm tired of having all these problems come up every 2 months. It has 72,000 mileage. Would you guys suggest to trade this car in or just get the shocks fixed since its paid off already. I really dont want another car and have to pay monthly for it again. It'd be cool to trade a car in with equal value and as nice as mine but i doubt it i've already tried that and they tried to bust my head by offering me a crap car. The car is fully loaded with leather seats sun roof, chrome wheels and cd player. I have a small dent in da back and thats about it. What should be the best move i should take regarding this situation? Any help would be greatly appreciated.tnx
how do I sell or trade my 2005 mustang? I owe $18,000 on my 2005 mustang and am trying to get out of the payments as Im changing jobs. I am willing to trade down and understand I am loosing all the money I have paid on the car. I have added all kinds of extras (chrome wheels, real duel exhaust,GT style fog lights , ECT) Is there any way a dealer will take this in trade even if I reloan on a cheaper car from them knowing they can sell the car at a profit ? Thanks Rudy. Ya I said when my daughter turned 21 I would buy myself a toy and it was fun for a year but now the payments are killing me. I just put it on ebay. I was hoping a dealer would take it in trade and I would came away with a older not as nice car and they could make there money on both cars. My own fault I guess. I still see these cars selling for $15,00-$20,000 so i hope when people see the pictures on ebay and see al I have done to it someone will buy it. How do I sell it if the bank has the title?
Should I get my aluminum rims chrome painted? I have a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee and I the finishing on my rims is coming off. I was going to originally just going to get all new rims but then my parents said it might be cheaper to just get them powder-coated. They had just gotten a table powder coated, and I was talking to the guy their and he said that for about $60 per wheel they could paint them what ever I wanted. I would just get them chrome or just a metallic silver. Or should I just buy new rims?
A few Questions about BMW 330Ci? I'm about to buy this 2005 330ci coupe. I have a few questions before i buy the car: 1. asking price is $29000. It has 35000 miles, factory warranty and its certified. I believe it has the ZHP package. I know the price is nothing too special, i just wanna make sure i'm paying the normal price (they might go down to $28k&something) for me the reason i'm buying it because of the low interest rate (3.9) my credit sucks but for some reason i got approved 2. What kind of package does it have? It has the fat suede wheel, 18" wheels, navigation, chrome trim. Is this the zhp of just a plain sport package? 3. Any reasons why i should NOT buy the car? I heard the best things about the 3 series and BMW in general, only thing is the high maintenance but since its certified up to 100k miles is there anything else to worry about? Also is premium required or recommended? (i'm not being i cheap, just wondering) Thnx!

Cheap muffler tip for my truck? I have a pretty sweet white f-150 that i recently put new mamba wheels on and installed $1000 worth of sub-woofers and other sound stuff in. I thought about maybe getting a chrome muffler tip for it until i have the cash to get duels. At wal-mart they sell cheapo muffler tips, and i thought abot maybe just putting those on. Is it worth the extra cash to put on a legit muffler tip or just throw on a cheapo from wal-mart?

1998 LS1 Z28 Camaro A4? Hello fellow patrons. I have some questions I was hoping to get a grasp on regarding my 98 Z28LS1. 1'st Will I gain 1/4 mile times with a smaller lighter rim on the track. I currently have either ZR1 or Z06, ss style wheels. Tires are 285/40/17 in chrome If that means anything. I was thinking of the weight per revolution etc. 2'nd Can I use "say" a different computer from a corvette or ss, again, thinking of the fuel maps/timing etc. I Don't mean to sound dumb but I do not know so here I am asking. Finally If so, what other cars/trucks use the LS6 Intake that I can buy from a salvage yard. I was hoping can use another pulley that's smaller for my under-drive crank pulley. Thing Is, a friend of mine used different crank pulley from I think a GM truck, but not sure. Last, other then the free mods, which Ive already done, Is there anything else I can do to net more hp. Full exhaust Is already done, not to sure of the gear ratio but I ran a 13:10@ 112 mph. Do roller rockers make Improvements? and can I get them from other engine like a silverado or so, do they have a better lift&duration, same goes with a camshaft. Thank you very much. Im not trying to be cheap but If Its possible then why not. I forgot to ask, can I download a program to my laptop, then buy the necessary cables to be able to tune. Your welcome to add any good Info that I may be able to apply. Ive been to all forums but I dont really get exact info Im looking for and I cant understand the term they use like "can" I just learned ses Is service enging soon. Thanks
Severe Rust..? What would be the best thing to do with some chrome parts that are severely rusted, I mean well beyond cleaning up!! Without buying new ones.. Parts like the exhausts, fenders, levers, wheels etc. I was looking at nickel plating or electroplating? Is this suitable for these kind of things? Is it cheap or costly? What kind of prep. would i have to do before as i doubt they would have them in the state they are in but im not sure? Heres a pic of the extent of it.. http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m62/ant-147/Rusty.jpg Cheers.
I need help with my truck!!!!!!!!? I have a 98 silverado ls z71 4x4 ext. cab short bed it has a 3in body lift and I want to put 33x12.50x15 bfg ta ko tires on it and 15x8 wheels. My first question is will this rub? My second question is more of a problem I like the mickey thompson classic locker wheels but I don't like the price if anybody knows of an off brand that would be cheaper that would be great. I would like polished aluminum or chrome but I would settle for black powder coat. Also is the paint in herculiner a good enough bedliner to last me for a good 5 years or should I go for the spray in bedliner. Thanks also what is the biggest rim/tire combo that would fit under this truck. I know its alot but thanks in advance.
What was the last fun song you heard that made you smile? This AM I was listening to Johnny Cash's "One Piece at a Time" Well, I left Kentucky back in '49 An' went to Detroit workin' on a 'sembly line The first year they had me puttin' wheels on cadillacs Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by And sometimes I'd hang my head and cry 'Cause I always wanted me one that was long and black. One day I devised myself a plan That should be the envy of most any man I'd sneak it out of there in a lunchbox in my hand Now gettin' caught meant gettin' fired But I figured I'd have it all by the time I retired I'd have me a car worth at least a hundred grand. I'd get it one piece at a time And it wouldn't cost me a dime You'll know it's me when I come through your town I'm gonna ride around in style I'm gonna drive everybody wild 'Cause I'll have the only one there is a round. So the very next day when I punched in With my big lunchbox and with help from my friends I left that day with a lunch box full of gears Now, I never considered myself a thief GM wouldn't miss just one little piece Especially if I strung it out over several years. The first day I got me a fuel pump And the next day I got me an engine and a trunk Then I got me a transmission and all of the chrome The little things I could get in my big lunchbox Like nuts, an' bolts, and all four shocks But the big stuff we snuck out in my buddy's mobile home. Now, up to now my plan went all right 'Til we tried to put it all together one night And that's when we noticed that something was definitely wrong. The transmission was a '53 And the motor turned out to be a '73 And when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone. So we drilled it out so that it would fit And with a little bit of help with an A-daptor kit We had that engine runnin' just like a song Now the headlight' was another sight We had two on the left and one on the right But when we pulled out the switch all three of 'em come on. The back end looked kinda funny too But we put it together and when we got thru Well, that's when we noticed that we only had one tail-fin About that time my wife walked out And I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts But she opened the door and said "Honey, take me for a spin." So we drove up town just to get the tags And I headed her right on down main drag I could hear everybody laughin' for blocks around But up there at the court house they didn't laugh 'Cause to type it up it took the whole staff And when they got through the title weighed sixty pounds. I got it one piece at a time And it didn't cost me a dime You'll know it's me when I come through your town I'm gonna ride around in style I'm gonna drive everybody wild 'Cause I'll have the only one there is around. [Spoken] Ugh! Yow, RED RYDER This is the COTTON MOUTH In the PSYCHO-BILLY CADILLAC Come on Huh, This is the COTTON MOUTH And negatory on the cost of this mow-chine there RED RYDER You might say I went right up to the factory And picked it up, it's cheaper that way Ugh!, what model is it? It's a '51,'52,'53,'54,'55,'56,'57,'58,'59,'60,'61....
Pontiac Rally 2 center caps? I'm having a hell of a time finding the stock center caps with just the pontiac symbol...and the ones i do find, like on YearOne are like $80 a pop...and the PMD ones are a little cheaper i see...maybe like $40? But is there a good universal or american racing center cap i can get for my wheels that wont cost a ton? These are early-mid 70's rally 2's on a 79 Trans Am. I'd like some chrome or polished aluminum ones if possible.
looking for a NEW crossover SUV any advice? Open to new suggestions.? I drive 3 hours a day to & from work in addition to social activities. so comfort is a major issue for my neck & back ache. I also need cargo room since I cart around lots of boxes & rolling files so I need a bit more than just a compact car's trunk. I've test driven a few already, but just can't decide. Honda's CR-V seats not so comfy inside. center console was kind of a little cheap looking, but still like it. Honda Pilot loved it's comfort. so much room and really comfy seats. BUT to me, it didn't look like a new car compared to the others. there was no chrome or anything to make it pop out or say new car. Toyota's RAV4 comfy and roomy, but really didn't care for the wheel on the back. Highlander a bit too soccer Mom for me, but nice car. Nissan's Murano Great looking car, but have read some negative things about it online. Hmm... FYI: no kids/carseats ok, so now how about my back pain...any advice about that LOL j/k Thank you

How to "theme" my car for Cheap? I have a chrome black 1998 Pontiac. I want to have the "Dark Knight" Theme (Why so Serious?) for cheap. I have a sticker on the back of my car that says why so serious. What else could I do to enhance the look for decent $$$? I only have about $100 to spend right now. Give me some ideas. Best answer=5 pts. Some Ideas I had already- Floor mats, Steering Wheel Cover, Windshield Wipers, Seat covers, and a Shift Knob replacement.
I want upgrade my car a bit (interior), a 2009 Malibu LTZ, where can I do this? Can I take it to the actual GM dealer where I bought it or do I have to take it somewhere else? My father bought me a 2009 Chevy Malibu for my 16th birthday. Its a really sharp looking car. Its gold with chrome doorhandles/ window trim. The inside has a dual color (brown/light brown) interior, like on the seats. Anyway, I find it kind of shabby that other mid sized sedans in the price range, being the fully loaded models have real wooden trim and navigation systems/ DVD players on the head rests. I want to switch out the cheap (fake) thin strip of wooden trim for actual wooden trim... like on the doors, around the radio/air conditioning settings and around the gear stick. How much would this cost? I want to upgrade my entertainment system, like screens in the head seats and a touch screen navigation system. I like road tripping to our beach home in Georgia with my friends, but I opted out of taking my car after the first time and went with my dad's SUV because of this. I don't understand why the Impala (only a few thousand dollars more than mine) has wooden interior and mine doesn't. I chose the Malibu over the Impala because I think it looks much better. It's really sharp on the outside and everything. I just don't get why I have to deal with crappy plastic trim. The steering wheel and gear stick are made of leather, but they're surrounded by crappy plastic. Anyway, thanks for any help :)
