RS Wheel Centres..... Are you f*#king me?

Post by Sonic »

Well Guys,

Since I stepped from my 2.8 world into the 1.6ls world.

I've been looking up bits and pieces to finish the resto.

Looking at getting centres for the RS 4 spoke 13" wheels. Here's me thinking ah sure there are repro parts for nearly everything. Went on ebay... 50 fecking quid for 4 wee shitty caps?

Tell me there are repro plastic ones for a fiver???

I also notice not as many parts on ebay as there use to be... sign of the times eh?

Genuine used at £5:

And new repro at £11.90 each:

or maybe one of the capri breakers can do you a better deal.

Yep, definately sign of the times I'm afraid. Genuine new ford capri stuff doesn't come up too often. But when it does it usually commands a high price!. :ford:

Got lucky on eBay and got 4 for 20 quid!

Anybody know the score with the decals?

I assume the capri only had plain black ones on the rs wheels?
