Hub Cap Clip Rivets for wide 5 wheels

Post by CamYoung »

Hi all,
I need 2 x new rivets that hold the hub cap clips on. I have the clips (og off a spare rim), and was hoping to get the rims sprayed over Easter.
I thought I would try my luck that someone has a couple left over?

Thanks in advance

If no luck...
Use stainless steel countersunk head metal thread screws with nylock nuts.
Good because you can paint the pieces seperately and then reassemble.
Looking for a mk3 VR6 and a 90's hiace... Future projects for shits and giggles.

Cam we have HEAPS of the types you have to peen over by hand if that's what you are after? We always throw them in the draw and use huge big stainless pop rivets in the luft gun.

Only trouble is you might have to ask Dibba (omr007) to send them as I'm traveling

Thanks Tonz and Nug for replies, I had not even thought of using nuts or pop rivets. I checked in the garage and I had the right sized pop rivets, so I am all sorted now!
