Canny be done. Repaint them chrome or replace is your two options

paint stripper, but expect it to mess up the chrome too.

I thought it might the other option is to buy new centre cap's £17 a wheel
I think i'd like to get some chrome paint and try that before i spend £68 on new ones, where can i get chrome paint???

£17 a wheel??? who the f**k quoted you that??

 

[fUbAr]

you'll still need to remove the old paint before painting them chrome... and you'll need some primer too.

I reckon it would prob's be easier to get them painted at a paint shop as i'm useless at stuff like that lol

surely you can just get some new diamonds and just swap them over, the diamonds can be removed from the turini centre caps.

Really it just so happens i've got 2 spare set's of centre cap's for the 182cup alloy's i wonder if the diamond's will be the same as the trophy centre caps ???

what do they look like at the moment mate? just a change of heart or something?

 

[Jamesy04]

the diamonds just pop in and out on the centre caps no need for a whole new set off the actual caps just new diamonds.

Yeah mate, they are exactly the same, I've swapped them over myself as it happens!

Just be careful not to break the pins on the back, all you have to do is give them a little squeeze with some pliers and then push them out from the side that isnt visible when on the car.
