centercaps

I have Konig wheels and after only one year the center cap looks gross. It is bubbling up inside.
Opinion: does it look ghetto to take them out permanently? I think it would look OK b/c my car is very simple and I am leaving it that way (they are flat black wheels and I am not getting any more than a lip kit for the body).
Who thinks it would look queer???

Boilermaker1 is a splendid one to behold

No caps depends on the wheels. If they're flat black and very simple, you can get away with it no problem.

Try repainting them or get them powdercoated, it cant look that much worse than it does now.

Centercaps tend to suck in that they are plastic and you can't powdercoat it. Both My Honda wheels and my OZ's have Plastic center caps. Some of the raised ones, do have metal caps, but they may be too small to economically powdercoat. You can paint to match though, if you find the right paint.
