DerFahrer Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 It's surprising how good hubcaps can look when repainted with a bit of imagination! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manarius Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 The orignal color of those hubcaps looked exactly like the ones on my old 86 GL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 Thanks guys..I actually put alot of hours into these...I hand painted with an artist brush the Subaru lettering in the centers.

#89 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 OHH YEAHHH! Your efforts paid off... you can fit so many schweet honey-girls in that Loyale Limo. I was searching for weeks for those caps when I had my 85 GL hatch. After running 58,000 miles and a 4 wheels off the ground ice-race at the Nicholls Winter Carnival, I sold it years ago with 175,000 on the ticker to a senior named Mrs. Leung (that's exactly what she wrote on the bill of sale!) Every once in a while, I see her tooting around in it to this day!

Bucky92 Posted July 31, 2006 Author Share Posted July 31, 2006 OHH YEAHHH! Your efforts paid off... you can fit so many schweet honey-girls in that Loyale Limo. UMMM...
