Griff 500 Alloys centre cap

[mnjarvis]

I've been ringing round dealerships trying to get hold of a new centre cap for my alloy wheel and have been fobbed off numerous times with the "ooh its hard to get hold of TVR parts like that nowadays" type comment. Does anyone have any idea where I can get hold of one pleeeeese so I can have my griff looking complete for this good weather we're expecting.. ouch!

Many thanks

There was a thread on the Chim pages where owners managed to get the centre caps from Racing Green and Racetechdirect.co.uk

Maybe www.bellhillgarage.co.uk/ ??

Indeed there was (and I was one of the owners) and here is the link to Racetech's Griff 500 wheel cap

theressome 55mm ones on ebay atm not sure if they would be too small though as the originals are 58mm. £9.99 for all four mind

I tried bellhill and racetech and neither could help, other than to tell me how hard they are to get hold of. BB do you have a link to the set on ebay? Thanks

Is it just the TVR badged centre you want, or the complete screw on centre cap for an "Estoril" 7 spoke alloy?

These may be the eBay centre badges previously mentioned [url]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Black-50mm-TVR-[/url]

If it's the complete centre cap you require then a few months ago 'plasticman' said he had some in this thread [url]www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=310146&r=4068355&hm=24517#4068355[/url].

I'm considering making a mould to make some from aluminium so that I can powder coat them at the same time as the wheels so we can have different colours... Black chrome, Chrome silver, anthracite.......... Stick your hands up and let me know how many are needed, if there's enough demand it might prompt me into action

I used to trade as OZ Computers and it was me that sold acouple of dozen over the last year or so, but theyv'e all gone now unfortunately,

Regards OZ

it is the complete centre cap i'm after, took my griff in for servicing at christoper neills a few months ago, a respray, service and a couple of grand later one of the little blighters made a dash for freedom on the drive home!!! From the response i've had today it seems that there must be quite a demand for them.
