Default Silver Porsche Wheel center caps for sale

I have 4 Silver Porsche Crest Center caps for sale These are of the highest quality you can get. They are also theft proof in they look down from the inside.
I dont think they fit my new Fikse nor does the color match. I will post pic later.
they cost over $600 last summer and I will sell them for $500
If you have done the silver hood crest these are for you.

I almost got a set of those several years back. They are beautiful.
Good to see you post.
OH, and my wife won't let me get the wheel crests. I told her it was Father's Day but she said she already got me some underwear.

Beautiful.
FWIW, they look very similar to the $449 ones at bumperPlugs.com; also available in silver with gold crest, & black w/ gold.

Regardless, I bet they'll make most any wheels look better. Center cap jewelry!

Chuck,
Ask her if you can exchange the underwear for the center caps.

Not sure if Paul's are exactly the same as the ones sold by bumperplugs.com. FWIW I bought a set from Eric a few mos back (..and I still need to have them painted black). IIRC it was the last set that Eric had left with the silver crests.

Too bad Ralph Booth (and Rennlist) don't sell the non-rotating versions anymore.

I have experience losing those logos on the caps twice within a week. (after replacing with a new one)

some say, the logos were attached to the caps just by "glue".

some say they are prone to fall out.... some say they are stolen....

they are supposed to be hold strong, but what's the explanation of having losing 2 crest in a week for the same wheel, while other 3 crests were untouched!?

I am using factory OEM products for sure.
