Ok. Just painted my centre caps and had to show everyone! Very happy with them so far... Now all I have to do now is wait a day and spray clear.

WPOZZZ

Details please. what kind of paint did you use? what kind of brushes? what's the method? What kind of clear are you going to spray?

Awesome! How many hours in on each?

Very nice. I'll be watching for the details on how you did such a good job.

thanks guys.
it took me about 2 hours to paint the first one. Havent finished painting the rest of them yet.
brush sizes used are a size 0 nd 1.
Got the paint from a hoby shop. paint brand is TAMIYA COLOUR. its an enamel paint so should last for ever.
cleaned them down with pure terpentine and yeah just painted. 3 coats is a must of each colour though.

I did mine similarly, but added yellow to the center and made the PORSCHE letters black. I pshopped yours a bit, but coloring the letters was too difficult for me in pshop. I would have photographed mine but the car is at a shop. BTW, I used Testor's model car paint enamel.

I did mine exactly the same way VA911 did his. But I didn't get he finish he got. I think a lot of porsche owners could do this only with some enamel paints and a spray paint of gold for the background. So easy.

i didnt spray any of mine. did it all with a brush.

Just avoid a power washer down the road.

shouldnt come off. the caps were cleaned and this paint is designed to stick. i also sprayed the entire caps with clear. hope i dont have any such problems

After painting & sanding one center cap several times . . .

I came to the conclusion that painting the center first & then masking it & then sanding & spraying the black part last gave me the best look. I'm useless at micro-painting though.
