Just had my ek9 alloys resprayed champ white, now the center caps look very dull compared to the fresh paint, 16 years old so no doubt they look old.

I'm looking to refurb them some how so that the colours from wheel to c.cap isn't outrageous!

any help will be much appreciated.

Cheers, Reece
 
I sanded mine down, used regular white spray paint. Then once dry added vinyl red "H" decals and then clear coated them and it surprisingly matches to the point you cant tell the difference in color. Of course the red "H" is brighter.

Wheels fresh from powder coating, caps two years after redoing them:

Will be redoing them before too long. The clear is starting to crackle.
