brabus wheel caps

arggg.... i noticed that one of my brabus wheel caps came off. Where is there the best place to pick one up at? I know if i went directly through brabus it would cost a arm and a leg.

if you call up KarToys in Fremont, CA....they quoted me $35.00 for all 4.

If it's 35 for all 4 they're either fake or stolen. Real ones retail for about $75 each.

I saw them on ebay for $40 or so for a set of 4 but I'm not sure if these are real or not. I lost one too and got a replacement from f1motorsport in ventura, CA for somewhere around $50 for one(don't remember exactly) but mine look the same as the ones on ebay as far as I can tell, even the back.

The ones on ebay are not real caps. The same seller sells chrome plated plastic replicas of most tuner caps and for $50 (including shipping) you get what you pay for. I'd rather have spent the money that I spent to get a real set of carlsson caps (or brabus in your case)

You can always give the ebay ones a try, but I've seen cheap chrome plastic caps before - they chip/flake, the chrome fades, and they scratch very easily.
