Question XJ Hub Cap Replacements?

I still have two of these. But, buying another two seems a bit pricey and I don't even like the stock caps that much.

Here's a pic:


Does anyone know of any other, maybe newer, replacement wheel/hub caps that'll fit? Or, do these have some kind of size specification I'm not seeing?

Thanks!

Something DIY/Homemade might be cool too if anyone has a crazy idea.

I would check eBay first, then local salvage yards.

You can get chrome skins that go over the wheel without the center cap (many of them need the center cap underneath to show the JEEP logo)

I don't really care about showing the logo. I saw those chrome covers but it's a bit much and they're probably just get cracked or something around here. The desert air makes anything plastic all brittle within a couple years.

I saw some metal caps that seem to just go over the end of the hub to keep dirt out. I was hoping to hear something tough and durable like that would fit instead of these silly plastic things.

Alright, sorry I thought I could get some wacky ideas for caps here and it would be fun.

I guess I could just buy a couple more if you have them laying around.

PM me I guess, is that how it's done here?
