Should I take the hub caps off the red 2cv I am indecisive whether I like them or not so I thought I'd ask you guys ![]() Thank you for your opinions |

i think they look nice on yours. I used to love hub caps on all 2cv's - although lately if the wheels are immaculate i'm liking bare wheels more & more. The only trouble with hub caps on new or freshly repainted wheels is that if you do decide to take them off you're left with marks where they've dug in. |

The modern ones like that are only useful for frisbees, but find a set of old ones and you're laughing! ![]() |

I think single-colour specials look better with them off. (I think black is an exception to that though). |

I'm toying with the idea of gloss black for my wheels, keeping the hubcaps and blacking the tyres in a nostalgia-rod style. ![]() Actually, if mine ends up red oxided.......... ![]() |

Depends what's underneath... If you plug the centre hole and use domed wheel nuts, then it would look good, but otherwise it looks a bit like they've just been missed off. |

I like em - bling! Still not sure about GS trims though. Had them on an acad once. Now they're languishing in the lock up. |
