Hey all,

I can't believe some people now days.

Was down in a little town called "seaton" (devon) with my girlfriend the other day. Parked up in a car park and went for a walk. Came back 20 mins later to find that damn youths (i;m only 20) - had knicked 2 of my hubcaps!!! -

I really need to find 2 others but don't know where to look. I've tried some scrap merchents but nothing so far. I'd really appreciate any help you can give.


Its a : Fiat Brava SX100 W reg (2001)

thanks for taking time out to read this :)
 
I dont know..are they? - sorry i really don't. I don't think they are. But i'm getting those ties for them. I'm SO angry about it. What the hell gives some little jumped up (you know what) the right to even TOUCH my car....grrrr

OH well. the hunt continues for replacements :)
 
Yeah. I'm probably going tohave to do that :(

oh well. Thanks for the help anyways mate!

do you have any pics of the car with the hub caps? i have 3 in the shed doing nothing, not in the greatest condition either, but if they match your more than welcome to them for postage...
 
I have just thrown out those exact ones. I think they must be standard I had them on both my bravas. Mine were quite curbed and the paint was flaking off two of them though - The other two were ok but both in worse nick than the one in your photo.

I'm unsure if my dad has skipped them yet... they might be already gone. If they're still there you can have them, But I wouldn't think you'd want them anyway.

I chucked them out and bought a set for £7.50 from wilkinsons, they look loads better. Trouble is they are well bling I need to either clean the car or make the hubcaps dirtier.

Man if you still have them I'd LOVE to take them off your hands!!! - i'll take the two best ones ;) - i can pay postage and all that jazz. - I know i should get alloys or better ones. But if i had these ones knicked then imagine what i'll have knicked if i get better ones. - my car will end up on bricks!!!

So yeah. Can you get back to me if you have them mate :)

thanks loads.
 
Ok, well it's no odds to me if I've got them they're yours, but I really think you'd regret it they are curbed to buggery all round the edges. Put it this way I chucked them because I thought I'd stand a better chance selling the car without them they were so tatty. Anyway I'll send you an email.
 
I might have 2 of those hubcaps. I had the full set of 4 but one decided to make a daring bid for freedom at around 80mph and frisbee'd across the bypass never to be found again. And the other, well it just was there one day and wasnt the next. So to avoid inevitable annoyance I decided to take the last 2 off. If they match you're welcome to them.
