Yes. But this is my last winter with the car, so I'm done.

Good advice for someone else w/steelies, though.

Sure. That's another good idea, although for a rusty surface it's hard to beat POR-15. Not sure how well PlastiDip would adhere.

It really doesn't matter, either, because if you ever had to disassemble everything, you'd be laying the torch to that nut anyway.

WOAH, WOAH, WOAH! Why?

I was misled by this thread title--I thought I'd find a way to turn these huge MODA caps into Nissan ones on my new wheelz. But, alas, the centercap.net website thing seems like it would be an expensive gambit.

Glad to hear you found an aid in your never-ending quest for OCD perfection.

Rochester/LuvLexus: Tire Rack sells steel wheels if you buy the winter tire + wheel package.

It's no big mystery. I'm coming up on 10 years of ownership, and I'm done modding it as far as I want to go with this car. It's time for something better is all.

10 years man... I'd say I've put in my time with the car. I've certainly done right by it, and have more than payed-forward to the next owner.
