I have a set of the typical 4 lug fuchs, with the original centercaps, same ones used on the pedrinis and mahles.
The sides are perfect on all 4, but the flat surfaces are a little "squirrelly". I thought getting a set of those adhesive-backed Porsche emblems would both cover the ugly part, as well as add a nice touch to the car. My question: I've seen a couple of different kinds and sizes on the bay. Anyone bought a set of these before? Did they fit ok? Do you have pics? I'm at work, and the teener is at home, so I can't go out and measure.... anyone already done the research on this? Which ones would be better to buy?? Here's the links: 1.75 inch emblems: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33744 2.0 inch emblems http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33643 Or aftermarket caps with emblems, 2.5 inch hole http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...gory=43961&rd=1 Any help would be greatly appreciated!! |

The 2 inch ones will hang over the cap. I got a set of the 1.75's and they were perfect. though I would advise you to have the flat surface as flat as possible. I kind of stuck mine on and will probably need a new set one day since the caps are not flat.
