I think your wheels would look 1000x better if the center caps were still chrome -- or maybe just the 3 pointed star within the center cap if you like. It needs that bit of detail.

I actually followed this guys instructions on YouTube, type in "dip your car" and you will see his videos. Did it all myself, applied about 6 coats and came out great! Hope this helps

its pretty simple, but please TAKE the wheels OFF and do it, last thing you want is plasti dip on your rotors, :p
i did them that way, and i liked the look of them at first, but after a while they don't have that nice black finish, check out my pics

Personally I did not tape off the tires because I knew that the plasti dip would peel right off the tires after I was done. No scuffing, all you got to do is clean with soap and water then follow with nice even coats.
