Gloss black wheel cover?

Can anybody advise on where I can get a gloss black hard wheel cover?

The one which urban truck sells is the one I'm looking for but ideally would like one without the company logo. It appears as if the part which goes above the tyre tread is soft whilst the other is a hardshell.

If it’s for a 235/85 tyre it won’t be a problem but if bigger it will.
Mime have always been made by Cutlers, but bigger than 235 and you will have to go for soft ones. As I’m using 255/85 now I have a soft one. Diesels Lives Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️

Bearmach do a spare wheel cover in hard plastic with soft vinyl to cover the tyre.

I have a “Hard Shell” one from where I purchased my Defender from, hard plastic dome with a vinyl/fabric skirt with elastic cord to pull in behind the tyre.

Did not want to give them the free advert on the back of my vehicle; 2 hours with an orbital polisher, some Falecla G10 polish compound, splash of water and the result: smooth, glossy and advert free

Mine also had dealer details all over it. I have just ordered a custom vinyl graphic in black to cover it up. From STICKER FX GRAPHICS in Barnsley. Seemed a simpler option than spraying the cover, lets see.

Nice one, it’s ordered now so if this doesn’t work out I’ll do that. (My inner eco-warrior also pushes me to use what I have!). cheers, John.
