I want to get my wheel centers on my split rims the same colour of the car and to get a decent match. So what is the easiest pannel to take of the car to match it with (+ what needs to be done to remove)?
My first thought is petrol cap?
Easiest painted pannel to take off?

Engine inspection panel (the two panels either side of your engine lid)
Edit: you'll need a spanner

or petrol cap a little smaller to carry and can fit in your pocket.
she's all comming together nicely now after a fair bit of cash spent, not bad for just an n/a now for some body kit i think.

Engine inspection panel 100%...
2 x 10mm bolts in the engine bay, easy money.

and a screwdriver i'm sure mines screwed in
the inspection panel seems flimsy and could get dented easily

if its a rev3 on then the centre panel between the rear lights

Id go for the inspection panels too, if not, a headlight cover can be removed in seconds!
