What can you suggest to paint those wheels to do a good job?
I'm about to repaint a set of 4 nice wheels to have them look like new...cause my XB is at the paint shop right now....!
The problem is not the color cause they'll be painted the same color they were ( just repair some minor scratch...) but I'm a little bit worried about painting those screws that are not possible to take off without braking them....is there someone that knows a good way to tape them to have a nice job done around with the paint?
I've thought of some shrink tubes that we use to weld in electronics....around each...will it word? Anyone with same experience?
Here's the wheel...
And by the way I'm in a search for a center cap...if anyone have one to sell....! ! Thanks !

It will take some time but I say mask them off. Place tape over the screws and exacto around them till they are all covered then spray them. It's got to be cheaper than all new wheels.
