You have the new style lugs...McGard might make something that will work (in black).

Plastidip will not hold up when installing or removing the lugs. :icon14:

umm nothing will, its metal against metal, even painted lugs will still get the paint damaged.

If they are anodized or metal coated they will stand up pretty well...hand threaded and then torqued. No impact!

A simple spray paint and even powdercoating will not.

Mike,

Can you do the same for me? Black letters with a red O. I'd like to add some color to my Nismo wheels.

wow that looks awesome. i may have to get these some day. $25 seems a little steep considering its just vinyl, but no doubting the extra appeal it gives the wheels!

yea that looks really good :tup:

I'd gladly pay $25 for them. All you have to do is put them on.

kenchan 03-24-2011 04:06 PM

hey, those letters look good! :tup:

Mike 03-24-2011 08:39 PM

Zpirate, sure, no problem. just paypal the 25 to sales@thepowdercoater.com and I will cut them tomorrow.

you are welcome to scan a wheel, take the image and convert it to a cuttable file yourself, then actually buy the cutter and make the stickers, I'm sure you can do it for less. ;)

I have them too and I agree.. they are def worth the $25.. never got to say thanks to Mike..thanks Mike!
