A while ago you talked about flush valve caps on your wheels. I have never heard of them, could you give me some information or pictures?
Thanks,

| I agree, they are the best tyres i've used on the cappo to date, i only have a set on the rear at the mo though, i've found that its balanced the car out better removing the tendancy of oversteer i get with the lsd. |

Yeah I can imagine! Also had slight tree sap on car, from where we were parked at rally under trees!
Hope we get a better spot next year!
Washed & polished mine when I got back Sunday evening!
After I got the car started that was! As battery was completely dead! Bought a new one today for it.
Ok Gav |

Very nice work !
Personally, I would have painted the outside ring in white, to match the wheel. |

| Eddie will do what ever diameter you want now he's got the template but he wont change the colours. I think Andy did do a black with chrome writing for the horn push. Ill have to be nice to him I was think of getting the original windscreen stickers done if anybody is intrested. |

Hi Andy thanks for your help Ive got a centre cap badge for you Is that a good start  The windscreen stickers are what a presume most UK cars came out of the showroom with. The auto design awards sticker for best sports car for under £20.000. Most of them will have been lost due to windscreen replacement. |

http://www.classiccapsule.com/ He has an Autozam badge on a keyring Don if that's what you want. I'm sure he could make up some centre cap badges from the same design.Just type in Mazda on the search and you will find it. |

Hey Steve!
Those centre caps look great! The car is looking very slick now!
Might have to get a set of those to replace my 'Wolfrace' centres! What sort of price would it be for a set of four?
Also are they bubble/ plastic coated?
Cheers Gav |

Yes mate looking good now.Thanks for your help you've done a fantastic job of the centre caps. Think i may have to look at that dodgy grub screw though just to make sure the centre cap doesn't do an hasty exit into the scenery ... |

Hi Gav. Thanks. £21.00 a set plus postage. They are set in a flexible resin bubble so should fit to caps with a curved face. |

Nice one mate thanks for that! I'll measure the size of the ones on my Wolfrace alloys.
What size are the ones on yours? If they are different, do they do different sizes?
