Lightbulb HOW TO..... Convert rims from male to female

This was sort of "needed' on a current project after an accident, so I just decided to post it:

First we start off with rims:


The following drill bits is what I used.




The wheels stubs are removed using a plier.


This step isn't required, and can be skipped:


This step is used for detailing purposes:


The plastic size is 7/32" with an opening for 5/32" made to fit the black/clear "V-1" part(s)


Here is the rim put together, now you just need to add lug nuts & paint.


Hope this helps any of you!

*edit*
Fixed image host. Originally was hosted on Imagestation, I beleive I posted this at the time we couldn't upload on AF.
