The new wheel center caps....


Recommended Posts

Nice if you can get matching bonnet and boot logo's!

They also have a black version of the chrome boot trim. The chrome one comes up on UK accessories list but not the black one. No good for me as I have a black car but on others, it will look fab, particularly if you had the wheel caps, etc and perhaps a black roof!

I may mention them in a new thread unless you wish to,32kofdata. Seeing as you found these AND know how to stick up a piccie!

wheelcaps were a right pain to put on, took me nearly an hour! the plastic is less pliable, the originals are soft then have a metal ring to keep in place, I put them in boiling water( to soften, then sprayed the recess in wheel with gt85 to lube, then placed the caps over the hole, then I folded a microfibre cloth four times to protect, then lightly hit them with a rubber hammer.Then I removed the plastic protector film, and sprayed with APC, look good on .They cost £6.29 plus vat each

SKODA Turkey is changing the worn, faded, weathered bagdes-logos for free, what a nice campaign :)

Not with the newest 2012 logos, but still nice news from the dealer. My front bagde is in bad condition, due to water ingress

They replace all badges here for free too. They are worse over here due to the amount of rain we have, ( they go milky) ,the dealer replaced all mine , then I replaced all mine again, the new sett will not have this problem , as they are not a plastic cap with a stuck on lamination . So although new sett expensive, cheaper in the long run :happy:
