    Hi All-

    Took the hubcaps off the 2008 Touring and discovered I like the look of the bare mags much more than the hubcaps. However the mags lack a centercap, so the rusty centers are apparent without the hubcaps. Anybody got a line on some centercaps that fit? Part numbers, etc. appreciated.

    Moshe,
    I went to one of the local shops that sells mag wheels and asked for a generic chromed plastic centercap that fitted. I bought 8 of those for a minimal price ($3 each) and removed the aluminum cover with the logo by heating the cap in hot water to soften the glue. The results are shown in the attached pics.

    This is my area of specialty.

    4x WHEEL HUB CENTER CAPS FOR 2004 to 2010 TOYOTA PRIUS | eBay

    A week ago these hit an all-time low price of $7.99. $14 still isn't bad though. I have them and they're good.
