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.
 
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?

yep that looks good....but looks like you got some new meat on those wheels...or as others say....new shoes

think I need to figure out a way/tool to do the outlines etc in black..you know the indented lines and yota logo..paint the caps and hand to my grand daughter and say...make some black lines

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
