A trick on how to paint fake rim/wheel rivets without removing them since that requires drilling each one etc. If you have rims with fake rivets and don’t like them or think they look too busy or want to paint them another color then this video explains how to professionally. This is the best way IMO with excellent results, worthy of car show competitions. 98% of the body shops out there don’t even know this method and most likely will tell you they can’t do it with fake pressed in rivets. Do it yourself and be unique with 1/20th the cost.
