I swapped mine with some Metal Mulisha, but if you want to paint yours remove the center caps, there are 5 small screws that hold the star on. Remove the screws & go to town. I would suggest either:
1. Use a blue translucent paint, Made by VHT. That would give the stars a blue chome look
2. Use Blue Plasti dip. If you don't like it just peel it off.

When coming to a decision on what wheels to get I ended up between the Rockstars and the AEV Pintlers. I went with the Pintlers becasue around here you don't see them as often. Had I gone with the Rockstars, the center caps would have been left in the box. The wheel looks great without the cap. One person on here has a metallic blue center that looks great. The Metal Mulisha mod is mean...Anything but the star.

I bet you do - I would have mentioned you by name but forgot your handle when I was writing the message... Can you PM me what you got the WB grill for? They are tough to source!
