Hi guys,

Just painted my standard wheels gloss black and wondered if anyone knows where i can get 4 centre caps to match because obviously the standard ones wouldnt look that great now.

Thanks, Terry thumb

I've got black and red abarth centre caps on my black wheels at the moment. I think you can get black centre caps with FIAT on the too - eBay is your best bet! smile

Here's my coop with the Abarth caps;

Yes Nick, does look nice with the black. Not to sure whether it will go with the sprint blue though. A lot of thinking time is needed i think laugh

Ok mate, ill have a look thumb

I used grey primer (3 coats), then i used the normal halfords gloss black (3 coats), but make sure you rub down when dry with scotchbrite because i had a word with a local paintsprayer and he said if you spray petrol resistant lacquer or any other lacquer over a gloss finish it will eventually peel off. Just incase you didnt know smile....Dont want to sound like a know-all laugh
