Haha. For sure!

I got burned once on the fake caps so I'm resigned to accepting the plastic Chinese knock-offs, and replacing them once they start to look like garbage.

There are too many other things on the car that I'd rather spend money on, so the caps are just gonna be cheapies with these 3D adapters for the foreseeable future.

Those Chinese caps will last longer if you spray them with automotive clear coat.

Replaced my black center caps with Red OEM Jaguar caps from dealer. Easy peezy, tight as a drum for a few extra bucks.

The OEM options that I found were like $20-25 each, which is way more than a few bucks more than the knock-offs (sadly). If you have a line on a set of OEMs that are less than $20+ each I'd love to know about them. 👍

The wheel centres are looking very pitted and I'd like to replace them. Fortunately the seller refurbished all the wheels so they look fine.
Is there anyone in the UK who can supply the centres other than the Jag dealers?
Ebay cheap change often as you like

. The aftermarket caps are crap and fall off. I went with OEM in red from the dealer and fit snug. No point in trying to save a few bucks for me.
