I'm reposting this because I never did change the center caps.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

One of the center caps on my 996 is a little worn - the enamel is pealing off the red stripes, and one section of red is completely gone. The car came that way.
Anyone know where I can find replacement caps; or even better, a single cap (probably wishful thinking)? Used or new makes no diff. to me - just has to be original.
It's option number 446 - Concave wheel cap with crest. I'll post a picture tomorrow.

I had some from my '99...have no idea where they are but I will look around my shop tomorrow and see if I can't find them...will let you know...post a picture when you get a chance and I will see if they are the same as I had.
I just had to buy a single cap for my Kinesis wheels. There are single caps for sale on ebay. I located the one that I needed at Wheel Enhancement...they were great. They had mine in stock and it was only $15.
There are a whole bunch of center caps for sale in the Classified section on Rennlist. Item #86. There are many photos of the various types.

Here are the photographs I promised. You'll see that the center caps in the classifieds of Rennlist don't match these center caps.
I've included a picture of the damaged cap, a proper cap, and a diagonal shot to show the "concave" shape of the cap.
Hi, Ben. I'm a little obsessed - I admit it. But, I only have the crest on my wheel caps and the hood. That's pretty standard. I don't have the air stem logo caps (not that there's anything wrong with that). I have wondered whether or not to switch to the straight silver wheel caps.
Hey, Rikker. I just looked at Rennlist classified and saw a full set of 4 wheel caps for $100. They look like they match mine, but I'm going to wait and see if I can find a single cap or a pair. I'm saving my money to upgrade the stereo.
Bob
I found them this afternoon...I'm almost positive those are the same I have I will check again in the AM when I get to my shop....I will send you one just pay for the shipping...I won't ever use them again anyway....PM me your mailing address....
I replaced my originals because they looked like yours. I went with the newer style and I bought them from Suncoast Porsche Parts. The new caps make the wheels look newer. I'd suggest upgrading all four to the new style.
