Reverse the tires and use black rubber paint to black out the whitewall so you don't see it on the inside. Goodbye girly-man!

Peter:
It's easier to put on a dress than change the white walls...after all we are all enlightened and full of equality so new threads should not be a problem for you...maybe basic black or perhaps a pastel outfit to match the car would do nicely.
