I have finally got round to refurbishing my wheels and they now deserve some nice shiney new hub caps. Having had a brush with a quality issue of chrome on bumper blades, can anyone offer advice as to where to source good quality replacements for my 67 traveller.

Ebay for some original secondhand ones in good condition. The old chrome usually polishes up nicely and looks like new and will last much longer than the "new" cheap chinease c***....

If the stainless steel ones are still available they aren't as shiny but will stay good longer
