Sorry,
i just rechecked the Dia of Old Stickers on my 3000M and 3000S and they are 41mm Dia ( 1 5/8"Dia). They have been on both Cars a very long time.

The new ones are 38mm Dia. (1 1/2" Dia).

On my 1976 3000M they were already on the Car when the previous Owner bought it in 1982.

Anyone who needs some properly made centre caps would be far far far better off actually going to the person who gets his hands dirty making the items rather than keyboard warriors everywhere who type rather than machine up spares.

Some fantastic TVR products available here. made to order and in very good quality materials.

I am sure any of the items could be made in any diameter that the customer wanted.

Lee makes some great parts and is doing a great job on parts for the later cars i am sure there are things he can do for the early cars if asked.

I am very pleased with the new Stickers 38mm / 1 and 1/2"Dia from Andrew. I think they will stick better than the larger 42mm/1 and 5/8" Dia. For sure the Dia of the Stickers changed at some time. Like the machining and polishing of the "T" slots.

I have looked at 3 different sources of supply for the Wheel Hub Cap Stickers and all of them look the same to me. 38mm Dia or 1.5" Dia.
I can't see any difference but i am a bit of a TVR virgin.
There are no more 41mm or 1.625" Dia Stickers anywhere

Thanks Adrian with the info, i am still learning about TVR Cars.
Are all the Hub Caps the same Dia with just a very small taper to enable the manufacture.
Do you think the Caps should be painted black or polished.
All of the "M" series i have owned have had Caps painted black, 1975 1600M,1976 3000M and 1978 3000S.
Thanks for your help
Merry Christmas
