Custom center caps
I have been running w/o center caps on my TSW wheels. I plastidipped the TSW caps, but it looks kinda cheap. The TSW center caps appear to be glued onto the center caps.
I've noticed that a lot of BMWs with aftermarket wheels have BMW center caps, making them look like nice stock wheels. You can get really nice BMW/Audi/Mercedes center caps for most wheels, but I couldn't find any for Subaru. There are the eBay "STI" logos, but a little too "in your face" and lacking in authenticity. Instead, I ordered some 3d center wheel cap covers with the Subaru logo on carbon background. Hopefully doesn't look too cheap, I just don't like the TSW logo on the center cap. Total w/ shipping about $14. I was looking for nice metal ones, but they don't seem to exist for Subaru. http://3dcarstickers.com/product/sub...s-sarbon-look/ Last edited by BRZranger; 09-09-2014 at 10:36 PM. |

They look okay... Wouldn't recommend buying from this website, took almost a month and quality was "meh." I liked it more without center caps.
Thinking of spray tinting the emblems or redo with carbon fiber film. |

I found some metallic custom center caps here if you are still interested. They look great but the price is corresponding. Last edited by AdamKL; 04-18-2014 at 09:12 AM. Reason: update |
