My local FLAPS has some for 15.95...Chance it?
  Painted mine and looked GREAT, but tried to paint the inner circle black(so silver/black two-tone) and 2 hours later the black had disappeared!!!! Just silver! So will buy more hi-temp silver and re-do or try the chrome.
  Thanks, Michael

good! I keep hearing this and I'm starting to get fixated on my hubcaps,
waiting for the dreaded rust! :o)
