Ripple caps.....yea or nay?

  1. I don't always like ripple caps, but in your case they zazz up the truck. Keep your other set around for when you get bored.

    1. Keep the ripples 2. Dump the cat. 3. Finish rubbing out the paint.

    I like the hubcaps-not so crazy about the bullet centers. I'd vote for the caps only.

    The side exhaust makes the flamethrowers into merge signals!

    With the green wheels I'll say yea { I voted } Now, had the wheels been gloss black with the trim rings, and some chrome acorn lug nuts.... It would be a nay on the caps. They do look good on your truck though!

    Sorry but I have to say nay, like the rings better. Just doesn't look right. Old moons would look better
