19" Volk TE37 SL = No Center Caps
Recently put on my new Volk 19" TE37 SL's and discovered that the hubs on my M were a little on the "looking like crap" side. So figured I would fix it and take a few pics in the process. Nothing really hard, but thought I would share for future generations
Here are the before pictures of the front and rear: |

To prep, I used some rubbing alcohol and a rag to clean the area of grease and loose dust/dirt. I then used a Semi Flat paint spray with a built in rust reformer that allows for there to be a little rust still left on the metal which the paint will then convert. It also does not require a primer which granted is not the smoothest surface in the end (using a primer and more detailed prep would fix) but its just a hub

Great work. The exposed center of the hub always bothers me when I see cars with wheels like the Volks without a center cap. Nice fix.
