TRD Center Caps on ORP Wheels

Had my TRD ORP wheels painted black and wanted TRD center caps. The PRO center caps won’t fit because the tabs are a tad too short. Found some nice gel caps from eBay and mounted them on the stock wheels.

Heated the gel caps w a hair dryer to soften it

debating if I should continue to run these or swap back my TRD PRO wheelset

 

Did you switch to black lugs too?
Of so where from? Ive seen on AZon and there appears to be two lengths…

 

I got the black lugs from Toyota parts dept and they fit perfectly as see in photos.

 

cool ill see what my stealership charges for those. Is that plastidip u used?

 

I had the tires off and used a paint gun with high quality Hot Rod matte black paint

 

that actually looks great. i think powdercoating the OR wheels black and this is a great option. slightly wider wheel, it doesnt look like every single 4runner on the road.

can you post more photos of the after, from some distance away?

Good job, the ORP rims look so much better black.

 

Do you by chance know what the toyota part number is for the lugs? Shopping on line and seeing differences in design but all saying they will fit.
to me the captive washer is ideal as it will be less likely to mar the surface

I know this is an old thread but how is that gel cap holding up?

 

I've since swapped out to a different set of wheels, but YMMV depending on if your car is garaged or always baking out in the sun.

 

How did the paint on the rims hold up. Looks great, worth considering.
