Don't you just love coming home from a real crap day at work to find some scum has pinched all 4 centre caps

It's been fine on my drive for the 7+ years I've had it, can't have anything nice nowadays without some c##t ruining it

Rant over

I can get new ones.from the US for $264 which is 200 or so quid but don't know what it'll cost to get through customs so could end up expensive or 230 new off ebay

Buying one at a time second hand for 50-60 off ebay is a Ballache, most things I've ever bought off there end up having something wrong with it so would rather not.

Maybe someone on here will sell me a set if they see this

Pretty sure Cotswolds do them cheaper than this.

Some thieving scrote nicked mine as well at the end of last year.

They're about £45 each from Cotswold iirc.

You'd think E30 drivers would have a bit of respect for each other.

Not necessarily an E30 owner, could just be someone who sees about £200 for 30 seconds "work".
