 Hello there, hope you're all well...wondering if anyone knows where I can get hold of replacement wheel centres as the attached pic.
Many thanks!
Paul.

 You’re probably only going to get ‘used’ ones which may be no better. I’m sure someone posted on refurbishing his, some years back?

EDIT: Can't find anything, but they are part number 5421 27

The chrome parts will come off (with care) and you can repaint the rest.

I did post on C4owners back in 2011..... - Click Here -

Just take the caps off and strip them apart and repaint the black bits, they simply clip together....


And Rich replied:

As Dave says the black bits remove from the cap assembly.

A quick once over to clean them up with some sort of abrasive paper and you can re spray them black. Be careful removing the bits though as the plastic can be brittle from its life out in the elements.


The caps on the C6 wheels are a similar style as the C4's 'Resolfen' wheels

 Still a bit of a faff but fairly simple, you unclip the black piece and the using a long screw driver gently prise the chrome ends off, make sure you set the chrome pieces somewhere safe and set them out in order as the chrome bits are different sizes
