Buying new caps is way cheaper than buying new wheels. (You might search thesamba.com for used ones it $40 is too much.) For refinish, Superclean followed by one of the specialized wheel restoration paints. (I use NAPA Chevrolet engine silver.) Jim

I have stock 14" wheels; 2 are missing the center hub. I am not willing to spring for fancy new wheels. (I'd rather put that $$$ int other upgrades.) I could clean up my old ones and try to find center hubs. (I will be having the corner damage repaired when I resolve the settlement with the insurance co.) Do plastic wheel covers generally fall off or get damaged easily?
