Alternative Rear Wheel Cover

[Mr.Fixit-Norm]

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows if Toyota does / did a flat spare wheel cover for a 51 plate model? Mine has the sculptured version and I want to put a custom graphic on it but I can't with the sculptured bits.

Incidentally I don't want to change to the chrome band or fabric type, which I know would be an alternative.

Cheers,

Norm

The original 4.1 wheel cover was shaped - there wasn't a plain option. It would be straightforward to fill the two indentations with plastic bumper filler if you didn't want to fit an alternative cover.

Hi, yes I had thought about that but apart from the amount of filler needed ( they're quite big indentations ! ) I'm concerned that it may eventually crack and ruin the graphic - I've never used plastic bumper filler but I've used ordinary body filler many times and on the odd occasion have had problems with it shrinking / cracking, some of the "flexible" fillers don't always seem to be as flexible as they make out!

I may change tack and use the chrome band type that have a flat hard disk front to them, trouble is they are quite expensive as well.
