Paint color for Center Caps?

I'm gonna try and repaint the center caps. Any suggestions on "how to" or
what color to buy to match my silver wheels on my 2002?

Duplicolor has a wheel paint that was a close match..Prep is key, clean and scuff (scotcbrite pad ) clean again,to get residue paint a few light coats.

I'm guessing yes, but want to be sure in the event different silvers are available.

Thanks.

This dropped from $13.50 to $8.50 today so I took a chance and ordered it.

O'Reilly's and possibly other retailers sell it as well if you don't want to wait for shipping. I've used both the Duplicolor wheel colors as well as the wheel clear coat. If you didn't buy the clear coat, you will need it.

Just painted my centercaps and it did match pretty close. Probably even closer if I clean my wheels:

Any chance or experience this paint would match up with the rear/front bumpers where it chips and peels always?

Yours matched better than mine or they modified the paint formula a little. I used the Duplicolor listed and grabbed a test cap from junkyard. Washed it with acetone, plastic primer and one coat of Duplicolor. Results - not quite as good a match as above

This one has worked well for me. Two coats right out the can and five years later, no problems to report. Only found at Home Depot locally, not Lowe’s. The # is 270201:
