[DIY] Spraying Stock Wheel Hubs

Want your wheels look special but don't want to spend too much money buying new rims ? Here is how I do it.
It's probably the cheapest and the easiest way to make your wheels look better. What I did was to purchase 2-3 bottles of black spray paints from Amazon. Then sprayed my stock rims.


The spray paint on the left is good for spraying plastic surface. We want that since most wheel hubs are made of plastic. It took me about 1-2 hour since I sprayed several layers to make the paint more durable.

Before:

Make sure you take off the hubs before you spray. You definitely don't want to spray paint into the brake system.

After:

In conclusion, I think this is a pretty easy DIY project and gave a pretty good result. Ever since that, I started noticing my neighbors doing the same thing on their cars too. This is a good project if people have limited budgets like me. From far away, my car does look like as if it has alloy black rims.

First own blog

Hi everyone, this is my first own blog. Let;s start off by introducing myself.
I am a college student and my major is Computer Science  , well Electrical Engineering now since 2012. Sounds nerdy huh?
Not so fast! All I am taking are some basic computer classes such as webdesigns and database. I switched major because of SAE Supermileage. It's a great project that allows me to understand the basics of electronics, precisely Electronic Fuel injection for a car.
So as you can see my blog name "Freaky Geeky Nerdy", you know pretty much that I am going to post stuffs like electronics and gadgets. Pretty much stuffs that guys love. Particularly, I love LEDs , cycling, and electronics.
