Question lost Hub Cap.. spray paint Steelies?

i lost my hub cap again today from the same front passenger side again. This is the third time i lost my hub cap on the same front passenger side.

Can anyone tell me how to fix it?


i don't think i should buy a new set of hub cap again so i'm thinking to spray paint the Steelies to black. the current color of my steelies look like gray and i want to spray paint it Black.

where can i get the Cheap black spray paint for steelies? autozone?

I want to buy a new set of hub caps again if i can fix the problem. Anyone know?

Thanks

old thread, but one solution is zip ties, very ghetto though. At least it looks better than driving around with a wheel cover missing.

I would take off the remaining hubcaps and just run steelies.

Painting hubcaps looks ghetto IMO.

No one has the cover in their car in my neighborhood; the covers are always stolen. I bought my 08 Camry and parked the car outside only 1 night, and all the covers were gone in the morning. Buying a new set of covers, and they all were gone. Thus, I've been using alloy wheels.
I regret that. I should buy a new set of covers, and this time placing a cam to record those thieves.
