The plastic covers on mine have gone all discoloured (possibly due to whatever crap the local hand car wash use) rather than get new covers I was thinking about changing the nuts for some decent black ones.

Has anyone changed theirs? If so do you know the size or recommend any?

Thanks

Bought some new covers in the end but really just fancied some nice replacements ideally like the driftworks ones... I want to be 100% sure they are right though if I change them... don't want the wheels going anywhere!
