Jeffery (914 7T3) pointed out factory parts from these fine Porsche people. These where so expensive from anybody that had a set left over just last year. $800 or so. What the market would bear. I remember when front targa seals where so expensive before George had a bunch made up by the factory some 8 years ago. The price of a good used
seal was one for $500. Supply and demand. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Bob B  |

George, I would like to see the difference of the 40-year-old units from the stuff Porsche is selling now as new replacement. I know, you know, so it would be great if you could point out the difference. I have good eyes for that and my eyes go right there if not right. Not sure it is a blessing or a curse in my life.

The caps are TOTALLY different!! They are turned rather than stamped stainless, are taller, have split bottoms, and are dull as opposed to stainless shine
The ones we sell for 32.00 are also turned, but look much more like the old originals than than the "factory" Porsche reproductions QUOTE(burton73 @ Mar 22 2018, 07:26 PM) QUOTE(dr914@autoatlanta.com @ Mar 22 2018, 09:19 AM) and they STILL differ from the original factory fuchs center caps!
