Ordered some caps off the 'bay for my refurbished Imolas but they are too small so was wondering if anyone has any laying around that they don't want in exchange for some beer tokens?

Otherwise it looks like DVB or Bell Hill or Racetechdirect for a bit of a spanking frown

What size is the cap you need, we must be able to narrow something down to less than that price?

eta. You could pick the size of the resin sticker you need and put them onto plastic caps as a cheap alternative until you find genuine ones that you want. Means that you're buying things twice though so I doubt it'll end up cheaper over all hehe

Pincher,

Not meaning to hijack your thread, but.. Where did you get the sticky badges? I need a TVR sticker for one of mine. My searches revealed the centre caps, complete, but I haven't found just the stickers.
Any guidance gratefully received.

Thanks,

David

I got them from an eBay seller called 2motoristcentre

http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/2motoristcentre/m.html?_...

The badges themselves seem ok for the money - slightly domed and rubberised. The logo isn't perfect - there is a silver bit on the T and R that you can see in the pic that is black on the Clever Trevor ones but for £6 I think I will live with it!

Just wondering where did you manage to get the center caps?

Does anyone know if the caps from any other wheel fit the Imola?

Big thanks to ctsdave & seeby for sorting me out - I am now fully 'capped up' and ready to take some pics of the car so she can go in the Classifieds.

Thanks chaps - PH at its best once again beer
