And if so any pics?
Thinking about doing something with those.

Threads obviously have to be masked but if done carefully all exposed surfaces can be covered. These are pretty gooped up with antiseize, and that's what's showing at the threaded interface.

Looks good. Do you have any of them on the wheel and car

Sorry, no. I'll get one for you this weekend. Don't generally leave them on during the build phase because of the risk of galling. The fewer the number of on/off cycles the better.

ok thanks.
Did you just match the color the lug covers came in or did you do them both?
I was considering doing body color but those look really nice

Powder coated everything all one color: wheels, lug nut covers, center cap, and spinner. Sorry no picture yet but I haven't forgotten. Didn't get the wheel weights I was hoping for this last weekend (which will require I pull the wheels to install), but should have them any day now.
