wheel center caps
I have 18" carrera light wheels with the porsche crest center caps
I want colour crests....has anyone ordered these from ebay my dealer wants $250 for a set but I see %100 percent feedback sites selling them for 40 and 70 dollars a set ?? anyone have experience with the ebay deals |
A lot of fake ones on ebay... only way to be sure they're genuine is to order from a dealer that offers discounts such as Suncoast or Sunset Porsche.

I use an OEM set of centercaps on my summer 18"'wheels, but bought some replica caps off eBay to use on my winter 17" factory wheels, and can honestly say that after a full winter season of salt and snow, they have held up beautifully. They look almost as good as the OEM ones. Here's a pic of the replica caps:

Thanks...I might buy two sets at that price///I'd like to see how the colour crest on black background looks on my wheels
|
Thanks for the link b-boy. 2 of my crests are missing from my center cap. I have 1 crest on my nightstand and one was "lost" mysteriously when I picked my car up. Been running half naked ever since :(

No problem guys. Oh, I found a pic of what they look like on the wheel. Here's a pic I took after the winter season was over, and I pulled the wheels off the car to store them...as you can see, the replica centercaps still look great. Now I'm not going to lie to you and tell you they're as good quality as the OEM ones, because they're not. But at a quarter the price, they are awesome...

Boxtaboy is correct about the replica center caps on Ebay. I've seen several examples of them, and the quality is very good. Especially when one considers the price. Hey ! Boxtaboy and I finally agreed on something !!! :cheers:

Colour center caps
I recieved them the other day and installed them today....fit perfect and they look great...dealer wanted $270 + tax
Got them here from Hong Kong for $60.00 all in Highly recomended |
I picked up a set of OEM caps (from takeoff wheels) through eBay for around $100 delivered. If you're patient, the real ones are around for a lot less than the dealer. Some of the repros from around $50-$60 look pretty good. I was ready to go for those before coming across the OEMs.

If anyone wants to unload 1 OEM crest or cap, please PM me. I only need one and I'm hesitant to switch to 3rd party but definitely won't drop 250+ on OEM through dealership.

Suncoast sells individual wheel caps.
