I wish I could. Painting the vinyl would be hard and it would probably not last. Next time I do it with paint.

you could do some red vinyl over the yellow vinyl. Like some red tips on the flames....

That sounds great, but they would have to have the vinyl in the same, or close to it, color of my car. Then again, if the tips were red like my car, you wouldnt see them. It gets so confusing. I was thinking if they could do an red insert inside the flames. Originally, I was expecting just a yellow outline flame. I was quite surprised to see them solid. It is quite a startling effect, but it does get noticed

I could count the number of times on one hand that I have driven the car and not had at least one person point, stop me, say something to their companion, give me a thumbs up, etc. Kids especially love the Hot Wheels sticker.

But I really do like the way the new wheel design tones it down. I am diligently working on them, but it is very time consuming trying to get them all close. I made a box with a cover over part of it, and can only do 3 at a time. And I have 20 to do!
