Default wheel center cap

Just noticed I'm missing a center cap. I have the color ones on my car. Anyone have an extra one they would like to part with?

thanks,

Mark

Good luck with the search. I'm one my third replacement in less than two years. I Have the "cupped' one with the glued-on shields and they seem to like to jump ship when I'm not looking. Do a search and you'll see you're not alone. I'm looking at a set of metal ones on fleabay that seem to have the shield riveted through. Good luck!

I just found a used replacement cap on EBay. Perfect match to the remaining cap crests. I found that two of the three remaining crests to be so loose that they would have flung off rather soon. I JB Welded them back after a thorough cleaning and cutting grooves into the backs and on the caps for better adhesion.

Mark, what is the part # on the back of the others?

I probably have a couple of extra's, let me know and if I have the right one it's all yours.

I'll be in south county and St Charles tomorrow so if you still need one, email me and if you will be around I'll throw them in my car and drop them off somewhere if it helps.

If you can't find them used, Sun Coast Porsche does have them listed online. At least this might help your search for which ones you need:

I have 4 very used flat plastic with the crest, but there might be a decent enough one in the set. I'm not planning on using them again, let me know if you need 1.

I also need a pair, if not all 4, if there are any left. Same reason - shields fall off.

See if you can view this link... Several pics of the center caps I have (993.361.303.10). They are in poorer shape than I originally thought. Free to a good home. Nile13 gets dibs, however since he's offered me the old hood badge I've been searching for...
