Center cap crest came off....

It was coming off about a year ago and I caught it before it did and reglued it with some sort of epoxy someone recommended. Apparently it was not enough as I noticed it was missing today when I was washing the car. Is there a way to order the crest (it is painted) or do you just order a new center cap? I am scared to ask how much a new centercap goes for from the dealel

There are Porsche center caps for cheap all over eBay . Everything from oem ones, to excellent knock-offs .

Go to Ebay and you'll find what you seek. I've never had a crest come off but center caps can locked on to prevent losing them.

I lost one shortly after I picked up the car with 62k miles. I ordered some that don't have the glued on crests. I like the new ones. Just embossed, black painted crests.
