Yeah, I didn't fit my covers, I painted the end of the stub axle and nut silver instead.

Think that will work, hacksaw would take ages , i can also take the badge back off the cap and make a suitable hole in the cap ( 2mm thick ) then stick the badge back on.

Its a long shot but it might just work!

Yes - I had same issue on my offside rear and just took enough with an angle grinder for the centre to fit nicely!
