4x Steel Wheel Centre Caps

Just on the off chance anyone is swapping their steels for alloys.

To fit 17" Steels. Preferably with the silver VW logo in the centre and oblong openings.
 
They dont fit on the steels, but 55mm Golf ones fit nicely in the hub (remember to drill a small hole to let the pressure out)

I think the ones above are the older style centre caps with round holes. Perhaps from the T5. The ones on the T6 are like these, but black. I've just had mine painted.

They look like they've turned out really well.
I considered gloss blacking mine, but didn't think it would work against my wheel in Chrome. I quite like the look of these none painted, but yours is making me think again now.
 
Happened to be in right place at right time. The wee spray shop I use had a Range Rover in for some work, including getting the alloys sprayed. They looked lovely. So with the left over paint, I got him to do the centre caps. So impressed with the finish, I've handed him the wheels to do the same with. I've got some badges for the centres on the way. I'll laquer them up for a durable finish for my winter wheels. Will stick some pics up when there done.

What badges have you ordered? I have a black set of centres but was looking for ones with the badge already in but if it is possible to get hold of a badge that will stick in the centre over the black logo I'd be interested.
 
I've ordered these. Had them before and they worked well. Laquering them will give them a bit extra protection from the elements. I also used some PU adhesive just to make sure they stay put. They come in different sizes but 65 mm does the job in the centre hub caps shown above. Check the ebay description to make sure you get the domed profile as this fits better over the embosed logo already on the hub cap.
