Title: Question regarding eBay Centre Caps
Post by: RobC on June 28, 2017, 04:06:46 pm

Am I right in thinking this seller has just stuck BBS stickers on the base of standard VW centre caps? The picture even shows the back of one of the caps with the VW part number! The reason Im asking is because in theory these would fit my Pescara's...

They're fake genuine ones are a perfectly flat, I have some that I don't use from a set I have (i put vw caps in them) I'm not sure if they fit, I think they're 57mm caps in carbon fibre with a white bbs

Lol, the crap on ebay these days  :grin:

Pesceras look better with VW caps imo.  Not sure why, but they do.  BBS caps look better on aftermarket BBS rims like the RC, LM, CH etc.  Just my opinion  :smiley:
