Want to do some changes to my rims

To start I have 5zigen FN01r-C 17 x 9 rims.



I wanna remove that ugly blue logo on the rim, any suggestions? (would the sugar and water trick work) it works for cell phones

Also what do you guys think if I painted the center cap black, and put a Black lip around rim?

Or any other suggestions would be nice

Try a plastic razor blade and bug&tar remover...PLASTIC blade, meaning it won't scratch. I use it at work on chrome whenever the car is being delivered and there's still gooy **** on it from the stickers.

Alloy wheel > plastic razor blade

I'm actually planning on just getting black lug-nuts to match my soon-to-be black calipers. Maybe that'll be a good touch for you?

You just need to make some of the other parts match ;D


I just looked at my wheels, I think the logo is painted on. You may damage the finish removing the logo, I guess you could try rubbing compound?? You might want to try and contact 5Zigen to find out if it's paint or some type of decal.
