Thanks for the reality check but wasn't trying to pose a Sentra, just wanted a change from the stock look on the cheap.

I have an even cheaper idea; remove the hubcaps and paint the wheels body color, or gloss black. It'll give it that "rally car" look.

You're getting warmer; I'm talking bare steel rims, and throw on some stainless trim rings and chrome center caps (if they're available).

The steel wheels without hubcaps is also the most overplayed ricer move in the book. I think what bulldog photoshopped looks 50 times better than going the "steelies" route. It doesnt look like a "rally car", looks cheap and like you cant afford new hubcaps. This is a rally car .

This, does not .

Visaversa, I'd do what bulldog shows. It definantly looks better than stock versa caps and adds a different look while not looking too trashy. If anything, get some new wheels altogether if you dont like bulldogs suggestion.

I spray painted my hubs flat black and no one knew they were hub caps. I had them until they broke off and then I bought flat black rims.

What Bulldog showed isn't an option for the OP as those are the stock ALLOY wheels (from the SL) and NOT painted steel wheels.

GreatWhite...look at the first post and pics again.

Those are Sentra type wheel covers. You can see them clearly in the first pic.

I like them! When you say Sentra knockoff hubcaps do you mean you bought them at your local autocenter (i.e., AutoZone, etc.)?

Actually got them off of Ebay and they are look alike hubcaps, the chrome lug nuts are fake.
