914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ WTB: A set of Center Caps

Posted by: kkid Jun 9 2017, 07:32 AM

Hey guys,

I am looking to buy a set of center caps for 4 lug Fuchs. Mines are too ugly to put back on the car. Prefer good used, don't have to be original, repro is fine.

Let me know what you have.

Thanks in advance,

kkid

Oh yeah, it seems very nice and the price is reasonable, too.
I will grab the 914rubber's one if I don't get to find any good used one here by this weekend.

Thanks!

If you can get the 914 rubber used ones you'd be ok. But most of my customers don't part with them unless they are selling the wheels. The fundamental problem with the OEM style is they corrode to the wheel through galvanic corrosion. The dis simular materials are the problem. The billet aluminum is the only way to go. that and they don't deform if you pop the with a mallet from behind.

Plus, they polish out very nicely w/ some Mothers Mag & Aluminum Polish.
