petegardner_901 Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Hi all Has anyone experience of these or knows which are best? I need to replace the four original wheel trims which are metal but severely pitted and I'm sure are beyond hope. Rimmers are offering two kinds - both almost the same price. One set is decribed as "silver", the other as "plastic chrome effect". Which is best? Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 One is silver, one is chrome. I suspect one will turn out to be a light grey but dull plastic and the other as in the photo, highly reflective. I've just checked and Canleys have photos of both on their website: As for which is best? It may come down to personal choice in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 I have the "chrome" ones which still look OK after 40 odd years. The plastic ones will need paint, silver or black on a Spitfire, but you could do yours red! £3 each for the plastic centres! Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Sorry Pete for some reason I thought I was talking to Colin who has a red GT6, I don't know what colour you've got. Or do I? Is it Mimosa with Chestnut interior?!!! Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Nock Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 The wheel trims are spitfire ones which have a smaller center so if you want to fit the GT6 badges then you will need to cut them down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
