What's the right way to paint hubcaps? - Toyota Yaris Forums

misterwolfe · 11-13-2013, 03:08 PM

Hi, I have had my car since I paid cash for it on my 17th Birthday in 2007. My Fiance drove it for a while, and he ate up my hubcaps badly. I know one is beyond repair as its cracked, but I was hoping to salvage the other 3 if possible.

So, my question is, are these scraped too deep to even bother? I know for sure I can save two of them, but they aren't exactly cheap to replace. These are my second set and he no longer drives Pipsqueak.

Instead of filling the thread of images, I uploaded here to Dropbox in a gallery.
