MK5 Wheel Centre Caps
« on: May 18, 2015, 11:42:42 am »
Hi Guys,

I have a MK5 GTI DSG and i've just had my wheels refurbished. The problem is that my old tired centre caps are an eye sore compared to the new looking wheels.

Does anyone know how much a new set would cost from the likes of Dealers or TPS?

Also if there's any place that do them cheaper?

I've thought of buying some stickers that can be put on the old centre cap? Could that work?

Wheels in question are 17" Monza. and have been painted silver.

Thanks Guys

You can tell genuine ones as they'll be corroded to hell within a year. Supposed VW build quality, what a joke. :grin:
