What to do with these centre caps?

coolasacucumber · 28th November 2013, 16:01

I have just bought some 18" after market wheels, that have 65mm centre caps like this:-

I'm not sure what to do with them, whether to try and get MG stickers to fit, leave them grey, or paint them etc.

Any suggestions?

Nice wheels! Just get some MG stickers of the correct size.

It's getting a badge to follow the dome shape of the centre cap. If it was my choice I would perhaps leave the centre caps wheel colour..Or as near as you canget.

Having said that. I've seen some listings on eBay selling the logo to fit into the original caps. If these are thin enough to contort, they would work.

I've had a look for 65mm stickers, can't find any.

Pab, good call about the domed caps. The current caps are such, but there are only 3, so I need to buy another, but for very little there is a flat set, which would take stickers much more easily.

I'm not actually sure if I want MG ones though, I'm interested in any other ideas.

I've seen the transformers logo, which I would never use, but something different along those lines sounds interesting.

Does anyone know if anywhere to design your own stickers etc?

Thanks

If you're getting some flat centre caps, why not have a look at these? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3212607683...84.m1423.l2649

They are 60 mm, so will only be 2.5 mm short all round, or barely perceptible when on the car!

Try this place: http://3dcarstickers.com/en/

I have used them and they will even make centre caps to your exact size and even with your own pic. Will do the MG logo, or whatever you send them.

Good quality too.

What a great post & company, thanks Dave!

They certainly will make them to whatever size you want, and cheaper than buying smaller ones from UK ebay, even though this company are in the States!

Now all I need to do is decide if I want MG or some other logo...
