Shinn wheels hubcaps
Shinn wheels hubcaps
Does anyone have any extra Shiin hubcaps that wants to get sell?. I need a set for my 38 Chief. I have a single lonely loaner from a friend and Im thinking in making new ones using my vacum forming machine, not sure how they will come out. I could make them black, white or clear so this can be interesting. If they come out nice I can trade for aluminum ones

Cool, looks really good!
Are you making them out of plastic or metal?

THey are vacum forming plastic (ABS?). Im using an original hubcap as a mold. Is not really perfect but if you dont look at it very close up you cant see any diffects on it.

If you feel like making some more I'm sure you could sell them. I would take a set for my 50L.
Re: Shinn wheels hubcaps
I didnt thought of that, I would not even know what to charge for them. Let me do I few more see if I can get them to look better. I need to see if I can make two per sheet
