My 1976 Eldorado Convertible does not have the color inserts on the hubcaps.  I saw you can buy stickon inserts from USA Parts Supply that can be painted.  Did anyone ever try these?

I went to a shop that does vinyl signs and graphics.

I asked them for the thickest, shiniest, black vinyl that they could apply to a hubcap.  I cleaned up a set that I had that were plain metal, and $40.00 later, I had black ones!

they have a computerized cutter that cuts out a perfect circle and they are self adhesive.  The shop applied the discs to the hubcap.  Don't forget, 76's have 2 areas that have black on them.

As always Brian, you are correct.  I would have missed the thin piece outside of the center one.  There is a very good graphics business in Lititz.  I'll stop over and see if he can do it.

You have to let me know if you go to any car shows in our area, Brian.  We don't live that far away from one another, I can pick your Eldorado brain........
