We have the same problem in France. The OEM part is about 30 Euros (actually $34) and in thin metal sheet that can be easily crumpled.
So we decided to remanufacture them in solid aluminium. I received yesterday the result and it is really impressive. The caps perfectly fits the wheel, there are two holes for a little screw that block the cap from the back. We only have to polish them and they will absolutely look like original ones. Here are first pics (IMG:http://www.aquiweb.com/eba/Cabochons_002_small.jpg) (IMG:http://www.aquiweb.com/eba/Cabochons_004_small.jpg) (IMG:http://www.aquiweb.com/eba/Cabochons_006_small.jpg) |
