18" Spider Center Caps Anyone?

[jak]

I've lost one of my center caps off my 18" Spiders on the Cerbie. Mine are plain silver and the dealer wants £8.80 + P&P for a replacement.
Are there any alternatives - ie with TVR Logo from elsewhere?

See them now and again on Ebay but nothing there at the moment.Probably be hard beat to find a cheaper alternative.

Paul,
Just thinking of replacing the lot with Logo ones if not too expensive.

I dont mean to come across rude but you have a tvr cerbera supercar probably in the top 20 for most expensive cars to run and your deliberating over £35.20 pp&p for the centre wheel hub caps. I think i must be on the wrong planet sometimes.

Beam me up.....

You have incorrectly read between the lines.
I am seeking alternatives given the fact I have to buy at least one plain silver replacement.

Im sorry jak but why would you want to go elsewhere when your dealer will have all the alternatives it can only be cost or else you would not have mentioned it

Support your dealer you'll be lost when there gone ?

As far as im aware you can get silver and gold plain or tvr in silver with black background or tvr in gold with a black background

The wheel centres actually come in two parts the wheel centre and the stick on cover be it silver (which I think is no longer available)or gold which is included with the wheel centre or the TVR logo which is extra.

Would suggest a bit of silicon on them to prevent them coming out.

Thanks,
Time for a change - Black with Silver Logo and I think I'll get my nuts polished - ooh err - replaced with the Shiny Nuts from JFS Precision.

Me again I bought shiney nuts for my cerb, they were cheaper from my dealer than JFS, not that that was the issue its that my dealer serves me well (Castle) and less hassle and an excuse to blat and look at some nice tivs . As im sure you know its not always one way traffic when you build a good relationship up with a dealer..Coffee chat and diagnostics are commonplace.

How much were your shiney nuts from Castle ?

The wheel badges are the same as the steering wheel ones, what luck the link provided by P7ULG, www.btinternet.com/~carlscarshop/pages/domed_badges_car.htm, are just the job.

thanks
