I had similar ones on my last car, but mine were chrome -

Liked them a lot :thumbsup:

I found with my first set that if you took them off with the wee tool a lot and scraped the 'chroming' off down the cover they started to lose the chrome. The second set lasted much longer (still I good nick, though I don't use them anymore), and for a tenner they are cheap enough to buy a second set and just replace tatty ones as you go.
 
One of them doesnt look like it's pushed on properly? I find the easiest way to put them on is with the tool you use to pull them off with. It helps to hold them square.

Also if you buy some in 19mm and use some skill with a cutting tool you can make one fit over the locking nut with some blutack to hold it there.
 
I ended up not having locking nuts on the rears as the machined ones I got with my spacers were too short. Figured the little plastic buggers were so hard to get off that someone would rather find another set to nick.
