Missing Centre Cap

Woke up this morning to find my e30 minus a centre cap. :x

Any advice on where to get a replacement? (ignoring waiting for one to crop up on the Zone or EBay)

Also, would it be worth investing in a whole set with intact brackets and a tool (price?), or can they be ripped off just as easily?

Thanks

wouldnt suprise me if most were stolen by people who already have an e30, and hence already own a proper tool to remove them.

utter cnuts though :x

You don't need the tool to get them off if you have manly hands!

No, actually got photographic evidence of having it when I parked it last night (just lucky, I dont photograph my car every night!)

From what you say prob not worth buying a new set then.

Brilliant Spadge, ill be in touch next week to get a new one and a tool off of you then. 15" by the way.

Away with work for the rest of the week so hopefully no more banana handed E30 owners paying me a visit.

Thanks for all your replies.
