Want to get wheels refurbed on my ATR. I know who I am going to ask to do the work but I'm not sure about what to do about the "H" logo in the centre caps - apparently these can't be painted in red as part of the main job.

What have others done about this? Currently thinking that I'll have to use a touch-up stick or similar and ensure I've got a steady hand...

Thanks

I've read on www.s2ki.co.uk (s2000 site) that people get them sprayed up then apply a decal/transfer type thing. They're either for sale on ebay or through an aftermarket parts supplier IIRC, have a search and see what you can find.

Yeah, paint over the caps so they match then get to ebay for some vynal decals for the H symbol. They withstand scrubbing and dirt fantastically, and mine have lasted a year. If you get bored you can also change the colours smile Mine are currently bodycolour

get yourself over to accordr.org and search for 'red h's'.. A guy called Andy on there makes them for this purpose and can supply no probs.

It's a great site anyway.
