Some a-hole stole all the centercaps off my car today. Where can I find these on the net? I looked at hawks and ebay and didnt find them. Someone help, my car looks so much worse with out them Damn vandals

 

I feel for you man! Nothing short of a low life, scum sucking B****rd would steal anything off another man's car! Think you have it rough? Try finding center caps for an 88 form. WS-6! in any condition! I got lucky one day and happened to spot a roll back loading up a formula and when I asked him where he was taking it he said the junk yard! It still had two caps on it wich he gladly sold to me for 20 bucks! You'd have thought I had found the motherload when I got home and told the wife to come look what I got! It took me 2 yrs to find them and I didn't have a comp. yet so I didn't know anything about E-bay execpt for ad's on TV. I've even gone as far as taking them off and locking them up in the car if I had to leave it unattended for a long period of time and couldn't see the car!

 

go to the dealer, they're expensive but thats where i got my caps for my 89 iroc, mine were missing when i bought the car

sorry i didn't see u asked for where on the net, ebay should have them..whats the year and model of ur car?

 

oh sorry, it's a 91 RS with the 16 inch wheels if that makes a difference.

 

www.paddockparts.com may have them they have them for the birds, there website doesn't have all that the cat has in it though. I would say dealership would be the best bet for the 91 rs.

BTW the chrome ones for the 70's birds fit for the guy with the bird having trouble finding them.

 

Check ebay. I see them all the time for like $10 bucks each or something like that.

 

I lost one a couple of years ago and priced them at a dealership if i remember right they were like $38.00 a piece. I went to a place that sales used hub caps and got one for like $20.... Either that or try a bane yard.

 

I replaced all mine on my '88 when I had it. Yeah, it cost me $93 to get 4 plastic center caps.

 

Try www.houseofcamaro.com Tom has center caps for several models. Not sure about an RS, but maybe.

 

damn i fell your plan,
WE NEED JAME BOND type center caps, toch them blades spring out the sides... now try steeling the rest with half the center cap sticking thorw your hand:lala:

 

Happened to me before too. GTA centers with the WS6 logo which was cool cause they were on a Camaro and all I could get to replace them was screaming chicken centers Some other jackass stole my nice chrome valve stem covers and caps last year also. I just wish I could've caught them in the act to learn them proper on what good manners are

 

sorry to hear about that man..
I just got mine today, a set of 4 black Iroc ones..
They are going to be jb-welded onto the wheel..

If you want them, you'll have to break them! :nono:

 

how do you even take them off mine need to be repainted

 

Damn, I think I got rid of the centercaps you're looking for. So, I'm really no help. Try junkyard hopping though! You'd be surprised what you can dig up

 

I think I've got two or three in my garage, there not in such great condition but send me a pm if ur interested. If not I'm sure HAWK's has them and there just not listed, give Bruce a call.

If anyone know where to get Bowtie centercaps for these wheels let me know!! If you do I can get you all 4 that are polished and in perfect cond.

 

Hi, this is were i got my center caps when one got stolen from my car. Most places sell all 4 for about $60 but they have singles here for both types of 3rd gens(camaro/firebird) for about $20. Hope this helps

I just replaced my wheels and have a complete set I'll let you get for 40.00.

let me know and I'll get ya a couple pic's of them

 

so how do u take them off

 

I dunno about you, but i pull them down. They pop off. You might haveta hit em a little hard, but all the ones I've pulled off just needed a yoink.

 

When you do get new center caps, get some RTV and apply some to the points where the cap and the rim fasten, then it'll be hard for a thief to easily knock 'em off, but if you need tires mounted, you can still get the cap off. That's what I did.

 

What is RTV an acronym for, and where can you find it?

 

Actually... RTV is an ancient acronym that goes back to the time of the Roman empire when the Romans were creating all sorts of new tech for construction. It stands for " Regal Tare Vita "

You can find it anywhere silicone is sold by asking for RTV cause its much easier to remember

 

Well if you do gets new ones they can and will come up missing again. Why someone took them. They are hard to find and easy to steal.

I would not put new ones on without making some sort of lock.

glue, jb weld or silicone

Take the rims off and put small piece of metal strap on the other side of them and run a screw into the cap.

You must make them so they need to break them to get them off. N still then they will probably break 2 of them before they give up.

 

I got new ones off a friend whose boyfriend crashed a thirdgen about a year ago, she took a bunch of stuff off his car because she liked it so much. they broke up awhile ago so she gladly gave me the set.
