Anybody know where to source the BMW emblem alloy wheel centres for an 03 roadster ?

Are these only available from dealers or is there after market ?
 
Ebay, fraction of dealer price. Not genuine, but look and fit the same.

£4.29 a set delivered, I put those on mine last year.

If you type "BMW Centre Caps" into Google you will get loads of choice. Best to go for the genuine BMW ones as they fit better. The cheap ones sometimes need padding. The ones look good:

I wuz robbed! :cry:
 
OK thanks. I've been away a while and noticed the Z4 looks a bit long in the tooth so freshening it up a bit.

I guess ebay was the obvious option but just not sure they would look the same as dealer. I guess at 5 quid each I can chance it.

The Ebay ones prob all come from the same place, I just looked for the cheapest, and at just over £4 for a FULL set..

There are definitely different ones around, the ones I bought last year only had 5 locating tabs instead of 10 and were not a tight fit in the wheel.
A dab of silicone sorted that though and they do look good.
 
I'd go for genuine ones.

I've had the cheapy ebay crap ones and the stickers lift after a year or so. Yes they're only a fiver, but why do a job twice?

Great price, I'm thinking of going back to the blue and white roundels.
 
Go with the cheaper Ebay ones but make sure they have 10 lugs to locate them in the recess. Good for at least 2 years is my experience.

The ones I linked two are printed and not the sticker type.
