    It is a good match. Mine needs to be done. I was going to black plasti-dip or Herculine it. But I think this will be the front runner option.

    Remove the wheel centers and do them seperately. Then the lugs will be exposed to tape up easily. This is just my guess, i've never actually done it

    There are other ways to lift and hold a vehicle. But they are really not that expensive considering what you can use them for and how much money they will save you. Get the lift and stands, take the wheels off and save time and your wheels will look much better:thumbsup:

    I was dumb and didn't tape them off. Went to take the lugs off to replace brake pads and stripped them to shit. I didn't think it would affect the "size" but enough coats will make them thicker in terms

    One thing all these guys are forgetting to mention. All you have to do is tape around the base of the nut (The rest you can peel / rub off easily. BUT, here's the crucial part. after you've taped and sprayed, have an exacto knife in your hand and score the base before you peel. If it's starts pulling up while you're peeling the tape off. STOP. Cut, and use a credit card or plastic tool to press that dip back down.
