my right rear hubcap wants to come loose after a while of driving. is there anyway to make it a tighter fit? the others don’t have this problem. Over the years my dad has lost wheel covers. I found this in Bangor, Maine and don’t want to lose them. 🙂

I have found that a little creative bending of the wheel cover (I’ll bet it is not really a hubcap ? ) can correct the problem.
