one of the reasons why I painted my wheels differently was because one time I removed my wheel and put it back, I didn't tighten the center cap all the way, and it fell while driving, luckily I was able to find it, the bad part was that a car drove over it and bent it.


thoughts?

A very good wheel repair facility should be able to fix that if that part is made of alloy. They will "build up" the broken/missing part and machine it. If it's made of plastic forget it!

hmmm, i read that muffler shops that make thier own stuff might be able to fix it since they weld and do stuff like that...they might not mind doing it.
-jus a thought tho.

Search around you might be able to find one for sale. They don't make my wheels anymore but i can still obtain the center caps for them.
