Flic Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Aren't all centre caps slightly curved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael P Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 Aren't all centre caps slightly curved? I'm guessing so, i just want to make sure before i buy them :D I didn't even think about centre caps for them you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strutter Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Without starting another thread can I ask. How do the Carbon/ chrome ones look?, and what size do I get for the center wheel overlays in the 17" wheel? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do the Carbon/ chrome ones look?, and what size do I get for the center wheel overlays in the 17" wheel? Thanks I'm not quite sure how they look - try and google images it?? And simply measure your centre cap and it provides a list of measurements on the website - mine are 65mm :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strutter Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Dont have the car yet (couple of weeks now) these just look pretty cool and seen lot of the poeple talk about them on here, lol, Sorry they have one as a pic on the website, looks pretty sweet.

andyedge Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Got the white/chrome badges & wheel centres on mine & quite pleased with the look of them (sorry no pictures). They are flexible so no problems sticking onto the original curved badges. Just make sure to clean the original badges thoroughly & warm the overlays with a hair dryer to help them stick. I found that you have to be REALLY careful to get them central though. The badges you need for the MK7 17" alloys are 55mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie j Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Thanks andy for the wheel centre sizes the ones i got are to big so reordering them now this is what the carbon chrome ones look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strutter Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Yep, that them, all my badges arrived today, which is amazing for a weekend order, just need the !Removed! car to fit them on, the do seem flexable but ridgid, so can see why the hairdryer might be needed to loosen them up alittle. Anyone tell me what they are like to fit, im already not looking forward to having to try and get them bang on to the centre! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxtrickzxx Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 i fitted some carbon and chrome to my zs and just fitted the same on my st,i found using just a bit of gentle heat from an hair dryer makes fitting that little bit easier,though i mean i little heat or you will bubble the gel,if i remember right the wheel centre badges on my zs were slightly to small showing the blue round the edge after fitting the badges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmaduke Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Nothing yet, i'll probably go for black and chrome though I have the full set of black and chrome overlays for my panther and they look superb, i didn't heat them first though as I tried that with the steering wheel overlay and it kept sliding off the others went on fine just needed some patience with the wheel overlays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxtrickzxx Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 ;) think it was the cold weather with me making the centre cap badges realy stiff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrefryer Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I solved the problem (=detached emblems at the edge) with some silicone. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
