gizmo001i Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Hi, I have just bought a 1998 escort CL which has plastic hub caps fitted. These have obviously been curbed at some time as the are scuffed all around the protruding edge. I don't have alot of money at the moment, so I was thinking of spraying them for now just to tidy them up. Does anyone know what colour silver would match the standered Ford hub caps.Many thanksIan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eetaylog Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Silver strata is a pretty close match iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Surely you could pick up a set of trims for e same price as a tin of paint? Welcome to EVO by the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavyrightfoot Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 a cheap set of alloys would be money better spent surely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 I'd just leave them looking tatty until you could afford alloys (or maybe find a spare set of trims in a scrappy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
