6UL replacement wheel caps
 
The 6ULs are all shiznit and stuff but the plastic caps that come with them are really crap. If I shine up my wheels the cap is all dirty looking and the plastic is already cracked and fugly. can't get it good looking.

Has anyone replaced their 6uL caps with some metal caps? bmw wheels always look shiz n all becaus of their hawt bmw caps. i want some cap that fits and won't fall apart like the one emilio ships with. there's caps all over ebay but i don't want to be the pioneer and find the thigns don't fit.

fyi i live in md and my car has seena lot of snow and salt and rain so mebbe if you're a lucky sunny state drive this isn't a problem for you.

I don't share your problem, but I've seen plenty of 6ULs run w/o caps that look great.

Yeah this definitely hasn't been a problem for me. I would paint my hubs with some black paint to cover the rust and run without them in your case.

Not sure about that, but on the 6UL it looks much better without the cap.

caps are for fags = you're not allowed to run them on the track

I'm pretty sure I've never taken the caps out of the packaging....

i'm on the street tryingto look fancy. not good enough to be on track 247365 :p

i run caps cuz my track days haven't started yet.

incidentally what the fuck are you doing to clean your wheels that your not-very-old 6ul wheel caps look like ass? soap and hammers?

Savington 03-13-2008 12:56 PM

My caps lasted 12 track days, but 2 of them broke when I switched from the R-S2s to the NT-01s. They are in the garage now; wheels still look fucking awesome.
