Since i am way too broke afford aftermarket rims, i was wondering if there was a way to take off the oldsmobile badge from the stock caps. It would look a whole lot nicer when they're spinning real fast.

~Thanks~

Cheapies are the way to go, and are worth saving the $600.00 for.....don't alter the stockers unless it's something like what Oldskool did with the gunmetal paint. ( which looks sweet, I might have to do that )

the only stock gun metal rims were either painted or coated.... they never came from the factory that way. Oldsskool had gunmetal stockers.... it looked nice.

Definately look into getting cheapie 17's from sites like wheelmax :) Much cooler than stockers.

I know that.. guess i didnt makethat clear, i wanted to see a pic of what his rims look like with the stock ones that he painted gunmetal :) I think that would look mint on my white alero, and i wouldnt have to pay for new rims and tires.

Does your Alero have the 15in. alero rims? My 03 has the 15's and I was looking into painting them a darker color. That would look good. Then when the tires are shot, I am getting different rims.
