Default Emblem in center caps....

Gents -

Just yesterday - I noticed that on the passenger side of my car BOTH of my Porsche emblems in the center caps of my wheels were gone. Not the caps, just the emblems. The glue was still on the caps, but there was no sign at all of any tool marks or prying. This definitely happened within the last two or three times Ive had the car out.

My questions -

1 - Are these emblems a common theft item? I have had my valve caps taken before (no doubt for a kids bicycle), but never the center emblem. Again, there is no tool marks, but I have trouble believing that BOTH would fall off at the same time.

2 - Does anyone know where to get replacements? I have the standard five-spoke wheels on my 2004. It really looks like hell....... : (

I have an extra set of Porsche OEM center caps with logo. PM me if you are interested. I will sell them for less than new and they are brand new in the box.

I had one fall off at the track.... cheezy glue they use. I got the etched "turbo" center and replaced all 4. Are yours painted?
