Hartge

[Sooty]

Finally got my set of Hartge wheels refurbed - well, sort of (very long, very painful & very expensive story) but the centre badges on them were totally f***ed

There's a guy up Manchester way who sells all the different badges for replicas, etc, who reckons he can get some made up for me, but I'm not 100% sure of the colour scheme.
I know it's silver writing over the two bands of blue, but whats the background colour?

Has anyone got a clear picture that I can send him please?

By the way, Maya Hartge emailed me and reckons she has got the last ever sets of original centre caps for 16" E30 Hartge wheels.
She's asking £17.50 EACH for them. Not overly expensive I know, but on top of the £500 these damned things have cost me so far, I can't stretch to it.

You mean like this

Apparently there is a guy on the Zone that can make some up but that was before the Zone crashed

[Sooty]

Cotty, you are a superstar Just ordered a set for £12.90 inc postage from the states.

Many thanks m8.

how much do these lot charge for caps?

Prices are on the link, appears $99
"HARTGE Replacement Center Caps for E30 Design A Wheel. New set of 4. Fits 16" 4 bolt version. [36 22 0562x4] " appears to be Special order only.

I have never used them, found the site when I was searching for Hartge bits. I really like the Hartge footrest but not the price

[Dan318-is]

100 dollars for four caps?

hartge do them for 12 quid each :S

[Cotty]

100 dollars for four caps?

hartge do them for 12 quid each :S

$99 = £56

Hartge £12 X 4 = £48

not a huge amount in it

318-is - Just out of interest, where did you find out that Hartge do them for £12.00 each?

Cotty - Yes, I ordered them from the link so as soon as they get here, I'll let you know.

I also ordered a set from the Manchester guy thats making some up. They'll be slightly different to the American ones with black script over the two blue bands on a silver background rather than just plain black/silver.

What diameter badges do you need to fit your centres (mine will be 50mm)?

[H35-IAN]

this is funny birds aka hartge uk there delivered price is over 25 quid for these lads!!

[Sooty]

Ian - Is that £25 EACH ?

[Sooty]

Cotty

Just to update you on this;
Ordered the badges from the American site you gave me.
They took the money from my account.
Just got a message saying that my money has been refunded because they no longer do them.

WTF

Why show something on the bloody website, take people's cash and THEN decide to tell them that they no longer do them ??????

Are these people bloody retarded or what?

[Cotty]

Thats a bummer, what a crap way to do business . At least you got your money back .

As I said I have never used them, but I posted the link as they had the picture you were looking for.

[stevetigger]

Be pleased you got your money back Sooty

[Simon]

Chris cuk made these for me....

Last time I bought some Hartge centre caps, they were £12 each.

[H35-IAN]

There is that. I'd have been mightily p***ed if they had'nt been fairly prompt about it though.

The price we have to pay for living in rip-off Britain and daring to be a little bit different I suppose.

SIMON - Do you think Chris cuk would be able to do any more badges?
Looks like there could be a small market for them (Well me & Cotty at least)
