first you'll need some lexus centre caps (LS400 i think, i paid £10 for 4 at breakers)


remove the back clips (angle grinder with ultra slim disc was my weapon of choice





you'll then need to remove Lexus badge





fill, smooth and paint (will be changing bolt for black one and adding TVR sticker to middle)

VW Polo centre caps are also a good alternative too...

You ought to do another set but leave the Lexarse badges on - then wait for the inevitable "where can I buy a Lexus like that?" comments ;^)

Yes i agree. I was having a bit of crack with Richard the other day. He is a real top geezer who has a passion for all TVR'S and a real soft spot for the Wedegy type.
