>> "Basket Weave" hubcaps?!? Jeepers, that's a new one

These particular specimens appear to be badly
repainted; they originally looked like brushed or
bead-blasted magnesium.

For the record, mine came stock on my '83 Westy. And
one of mine currently rests in the weeds somewhere
along a sixteen mile stretch of road made of
softball-sized gravel in Michigan's Upper Peninsula...
