did you spray the caps or get new ones , just had mine done Light gunmetal grey and the caps just match just the centre laminate is like yours which makes them lighter.

4 new caps will cost me £60 posted


Keep the fr ones!

Get them refurbed and some spacers and a nice ride height!

They look good!

same here but finding near enough the same sticker that will stick on a convex surface is near impossible, even finding a replacement cap is a no go as the inner dia is a odd one now if they were the cupra type wheels that would not be an issue

i just ordered some new ones this afternoon mate

Oh and a completed pic of mine!

Silver centres contrast with the silver brakes nicely me thinks

mine light gunmetal grey

the nut caps match well but due to the lacquer or sticker that is used for the "S" center it has gone very light grey yours looks like it has gone the same, in contrast look at a near new one
