... anyone who knows how much Honda charge for that little bit of plastic.

When I bought by original spare set of wheels the seller seemed surprised that I checked the centre caps were included... if they weren't adding new ones would have added 40% or so to the cost of the wheels.

Your senses do not betray you young Tif.............probably unfair of me to call it an 'experiment' as it is nothing new (though I am experimenting with colours............now then, where is that Dulux colourmaster chart )

Talking of experimenting - has anyone seen this done on a Silverstone car before?

It was Lisa's car where I 1st saw colour coded 'warts', but I was worried about how it would look on a lighter coloured car - you cany spray the rubber gasket or the washer jets so a fair proportion of black does remain. (I considered going the 'Biker1' route and replacing the warts with far smaller versions from a BMW - still the best option IMHO, but too fiddly for me at the moment. Anyway, I am pleased with the result. I think the warts now look finished at least.

And no, I didnt do it myself, my excellent dealer did this, along with 1 or 2 other little mods for me whilst replacing my wheels under warranty. I will post everything in a seperate thread when I get chance.

Ricks "S" badges are stuck over the existing Honda centre caps and so no spare centre caps to offer!. However, the "S" badges do look great (see my separate thread on mods) and may cover up the damage if you cannot get replacements?.
