BBS RGR Replacement Center Caps

Hi guys,

Recently bought a set of diamond black RGR wheels and I'm assuming they'll come with black and gold center caps. I have no gold colour on my car so I feel it'll look tacky and out of place.

Any online sites where I can buy official BBS center caps? Probably looking for more of a black/grey look for the caps.

Thanks.

I can't help you with where to find them, but the black & gold center caps don't look tacky at all on my black e90.

My car is Tasman Metallic Green and I feel the gold will look out of place:

I think black/gold would look better than red, not sure what other colors you're considering. I'd put 'em on and see how it looks first, though. Good luck either way.

I agree about the red. They also come in carbon fiber/silver and black/silver so I'd go with one of those.

I think black/silver would look pretty sweet. Please share the source if you find them reasonably priced (and not cheap knockoffs).

I found one site that claims to sell them at $25 per cap. They charge $11 more per red:

I ended up going with the CF/Silver ones. $72 for four of them, tax in:

Good stuff. I'm glad you went with authentic caps. I've seen fake caps that fade after a few months.
