Default Where to buy wheel center caps?

I have RUF 17" Speedlines and I want the RUF centercaps, any idea where to buy them? Truthfully I'd prefer replica's if they are made as I don't want to spend the $ on real ones. ANyone make these? THanks

Marc- I have been watching Ebay for a few weeks but haven't found any. Someone had some real ones on there but they sold for like $300

Steve- Did you get yours on EBAY? If so do you know the vendor? Thanks

I just got a set for my 18" speedlines on evil-pray for about $160. You can get them from Ruf directly however expect to pay about $400.

Other than that, just load Porsche Ruf in to the evil-pray search engine and get them to send alerts.

Took me 6 months by got them in the end.

I'm also looking for Ruf center caps as I just got a set of 17" Ruf but 2 caps were scratched. Found this on Taiwan Yahoo auction:

It looks nice but you need a set of original center caps to have these stick on, and the center caps needs to be shaved a bit to ensure a smooth fit. Find a set of cheap used caps with these metal badges might do the job, but I haven't find the cheap center caps yet....

Just ordered a set from Ruf auto center directly...$39 each plus shipping. Expensive for a small piece of metal but much cheaper than I expected...
You can also have it painted to any color at $125 a set...
