I had a couple stolen and replaced them with aftermarket ones from ebay which are fine but the colour is not the exact shade of grey that the original ones were.

Just two small holes in them - I used two small Allen keys to put in and lever the covers off.

Suggestion
Got my replacement turbo covers from Porsche shop - about £150 for 4 delivered OE parts, pricey but just prefer to use originals.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

I put a post on here a while back re: the black and white centre caps. I had a couple stolen and replaced them with aftermarket ones from ebay which are fine but the colour is not the exact shade of grey that the original ones were. I think a gentleman had a spare original set that he was willing to let me have. If you still have them or if anyone has any original ones, black and white or colour I would be most interested! many thanks
Richard
Not sure what you mean by black & white caps, but I have got a set of the standard (genuine) silver caps with the Porsche crest in black. They are yours for £7.50 inc P&P if you want them. Drop me an email if you are interested.
Hi Richard
That is exactly what I meant, sorry for my vague description!
They would be perfect for me. Can you let me know which email address to communicate with you on and I can arrange to send you the money.
many thanks
Richard
I need some replacement caps for my wheels.
Are the old ones easy to hoick out? Do i need special tools? Do i need to take the wheels off...god forbid!
I see loads available on Ebay...anything special to look out for?
Danny, replaced mine a short while ago, if I can do it anyone can!!! Just two small holes in them - I used two small Allen keys to put in and lever the covers off. Got my replacement turbo covers from Porsche shop - about £150 for 4 delivered OE parts, pricey but just prefer to use originals. A plethora of options available on eBay etc depending on preference.
Cheers.
Phew! Allen keys i can do.
Yeah, about time my wheels had a bit of TLC. Alloys all scuffed and roughed up. Couple of center badges gone. Time to make them beautiful again.
Apart from the wheels, my porker is bloody awesome. 11 years old, just had a major service and only thing that came extra was a new fan belt for a hundred and something-low quid. Super happy with that. Last service was the same: nothing needed doing. Had my baby seven and a half years - and she drives as good as the day i got her. Happy dayz!
