Fuch centre cap - larger ring
One of my caps went for a walk on Friday so I could do with a replacement.
It’s for a later Fuchs wheel with the larger centre hole and has a ring fitting rather than the three prongs of the earlier caps.
It didn’t have the little holes in to pull it off and ideally I’d like one without holes.
What do you have in the back of the shed?

Hi Gary,
I hope you are well. If you have no luck finding a used one, Sierra Madre sell the ring type without the holes (apparently Porsche don’t sell this type without the holes)

Kind regards

Re: Fuch centre cap - larger ring
I might have something Gary, will need to have rummage though and it'll probably need some work.

Re: Fuch centre cap - larger ring
Thanks, anything would be great (even if it needs paint) as I’ve currently got a hole!

Or, as a alternative you could go ahead and get your ring centre cap Gary and I will inform the dvla asap to let them know it’s not original equipment so you can order your ‘Q’ plate early.
Cheers.

Sound planning Mike. I like it.
Serves me right for actually using my car and not keeping it in factory condition

After seeing the price for a new centre cap from SMC (who are usually one of the cheapest parts suppliers in the US), I checked on ebay to see what used ones sell for - & couldn't believe the prices for such a simple/insignificant part ...
