I have a mark 1 and like it or not I want to keep the wheel trims and steel wheels and do not wish to invest in alloys. There we are, got that out of the way. I am investing a lot of money in refurbishing five of the wheel trims that I own. I am having the "fake" zinc wheel nuts, five on each trim (of course you all know this!) chromed, and have had the circular piece of steel behind the trim, which attaches to the steel wheel, powder coated in gloss black. The black sections on the face of the wheel trim has been painted in satin black. Doing all this work has been a mission and what I do not want, is when I bring the car out in April, is for one, or worse, more than one of those trims to come flying off the wheels!
Is there anyone in this lovely Club and moreover in this forum who has a tip/suggestion that will ensure that the wheel trims actually stay put on the wheels! There must be other members who run their cars with and have adopted the use of steel wheels and wheel trims and have encountered such an issue?
I am very much appreciative for any suggestions. Please don't make them witty or sarcastic.
All the best

PS Acquired my car last September and I am presently in the enhancing and refurbishing stage.
