DIY: Painting your own wheels

I made another DIY video when I painted the wheels of my Boxster 986. I also created a Patreon page if anyone is interested in supporting the channel and getting some additional content. You can join by going to www.patreon.com/helpmediy

The guy that made them has been MIA. I talk about them a little in my video on how to remove center caps on my channel.

No longer available, but I hear you can get Ferrari fender badge stickers for your Boxster on alibaba.
Walmart also sells stick-on vents to decorate your car with.

Have at it, Chief.

Awesome. I didn't know that was an option. I've been thinking about doing my wheels but dreading the idea of having the tires removed and then put back on (especially with fresh paint on them.)
