They cost just $58.95 ($13.99 each plus $2.99 shipping) for all four!

They came with double sided foam tape on the back to attach to the wheel centers, but I decided to remove the tape and use adhesive instead. I originally intended to use black silicone adhesive/sealant but in the end I went with Loctite premium Urethane adhesive. I used cut down cotton swabs stuffed into the holes to keep the adhesive out. They also helped center the badge. Worked great. I'll use a dab of black silicone adhesive/sealant on each of the retaining prongs when I install the caps on the wheels (it keeps them from rattling)...

These look so good I will probably order another set!
They look really nice. Is there a clear coat over the crest?
