More Hub Cap Bling

[Hayes]

For those of you who like a little bling on your 80...
Last year I spent (too much) time refinishing my center caps:

Last week I broke out the sandpaper, paint, a vinyl TEQ decal, and a fifth center cap to add a little bling to my spare tire. I think it looks pretty sweet:

Nice I like it!

Looks great!

I might just copy your idea when I get a rear tire carrier.

That's hard-core cool. What did you do about the indentation for the T on the center cap? Filler? I would think the decal would peel away from the cap after a while if you didn't fill that indentation.

I like the white, same as me.

If you were really anal, you could bondo the indentation, but I have a feeling as long as you don't push on it, you're not gonna be able to tell.

Oh, Hayes, it's really cool. I'm not a big fan of the TEQ emblem, just doesn't do anything for me, but I understand the heritage and the "value" of it. Cool idea!

I filled the Toyota emblem with some filler stuff I picked up at the auto parts store.

Yeah, the TEQ often gets carried too far around here...but so does everything Cruiser related .

I'm not a big sticker fan (I'm actually going to remove the 4 Wheel Drive decal from my bumper), but I figure a TEQ decal on the rear end is just about right.

That cap looks like it's from a '95

Land Speeder- Those are some sweet spinners! When your near them do you have an urge to kneel down next to them, flash a gang sign, and grunt?
