StuC, It is a pain but I will get some from somewhere, I am thinking black would not look too bad against the wheels? saves trying to match the colours up??  x

Good idea, perhaps even red as an accent.  s8) 8) s8)

I could try and mock it up on a photoshop if you'd like?

 Dont, im stuck at work right now and would do anything for a packet of crisps!   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  

Must say, dont usually like matt black, but think because of the contrasting orange you have done it very well!


And what colour are the seats??? can we have some better views?

You can get blank Center caps on eBay.
Fill the Center with a stick on moulded resin emblem which can be done in most colours.
I had a set done in blue with silver screaming chicken emblem and very happy with them.
Had them on far ages with no problems.

haha on the internet at work? tut tut! then again, I'm at work now.... eating breakfast! (walkers crisps)   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  

Thanks! The orange is from the Focus ST. I was going to do the spoiler in it but I think it would be too much orange then.... less is more   s8) 8) s8)  



They're black but the colour changes depending on how bright it is. Don't ask me what the fabric is, I brought it off ebay and stitched it all up myself! It kind-of feels like faux suede.

Not really a fan of Matt black either, unless it's on a Lambo , but that does look good, agree about the spoiler.

Quote from: Richard41Not sure on that one, previous owner might know.

Not easy to measure but caps are 58mm wide (where they sit against the wheel)

Held in place by sprung clips, approx 46mm apart.

Hi Richard, Thank you very much for the offer but I have those caps already on the stock wheels that just came off the car.

I have called Wolfrace today to ask about the Ikon centre caps and they don't have them anymore as they are an old wheel design now. I will keep looking for some. x

Oooh yes please Stu, that would be fab if you could. Trying to locate them but it is proving really hard, but I will keep looking. x

Thanks hun, I might have to do that if I cannot locate the originals from anywhere. x

Did they advise you that some simpler might also fill the hole?

I'll try and sort out a photoshop tonight.
