Default painting TE37 center caps

I've searched everywhere for a set of center caps for gunmetal TE37s but apparently Volk decided that making a bronze one was enough.

The only solution I've found is to buy a set of caps which look like the flat disc-type cap which you find on 17"+ TE37s (I have 16s) and try to paint them to match.

Is it as simple as taking a can of spray paint to them?

That link shows the GT center cap (I believe there's also a center cap that just says "VR") and caps for 17"+ TE37s but I was hoping for something more like this...



which is made for a 16" TE37. The pic above shows their bronze cap but I was hoping for gunmetal.

Thanks anyway LemonSi...

Anyone with a quick "how-to" on painting something gunmetal?

They have to pay for those kids' labor somehow. LOL But have you tried using stock caps from GSR/SI's wheels? If they fit you can probably paint those easily.
