Custom sized centre caps?

xCobehx · 06-24-2015, 07:57 AM

Afternoon chaps,

I've had a set of aftermarket alloys on my 318i for a year and a bit now but unfortunately, my original alloy caps didn't fit and were subsequently stolen.

The firm I bought the alloys from gave me a set of caps with the alloy branding on them which are fine but I'd still like a set of BMW caps again. Are custom sized caps available as I tried BMW and they flat out "nope'd" me?

Thanks for any help!

Lol BMW won't help.

There are companies that will make gel overlays for badges, can do what size you need.

As above, i just bought some gel type stickers, which actually had metal in them so look good so far.

If you want custom it is expensive. See www.upstreamcentercaps.com

About 166 euros for a set of four!
