Anyone know where I can get the black enameled with Porsche crest hub cap centers at a reasonable price, like on an old 356?
Thanx.
Bruce

I don't know where to get those, but I was just wondering now that you brought it up: does anyone ever put half moons on their wheels on the Spyder? My NuNu (Speedster) had them and they were beautiful. I've often thought of doing this on Spydie, for practical reasons mostly; that is, cleaning half moons is easier than wiping around all those bolts and lumps, and you don't break any nails. Don't think I'm kidding. . .v v
For both of your requests, try
www.tweeks.com and www.pap-parts.com/store/home.asp

But LJ, is it goofy to put half moons on my Spydie? v
Vicki, where have you been???
No, it's not Goofy, it's Pluto!!!!
Actually, many Spyder owners have hub caps on their rims and, it doesn't look bad at all..
Personally, I like the hubcaps with the Porsche crest.

Bruce: I'm in the process of "retro-ing" my spyder with my wheels painted to match the red of the interior and chrome baby-moons. West Coast Metric has them for $12.95 each.
There's a really cool old book called "The Porsche Book". It's written by Lothar Boschen and Jurgen Barth (whose dad raced spyders). In the section on Spyders, they have several pictures of Spyders with baby moons and painted wheels. IMHO, they look really cool...total '50's.
But then, I'm a retro-grouch any way.
Cheers!

Most V.W. Shops have hub-caps with the porshe crest on them.
They call them "porshe nipple" caps. VW guys use them quite a bit.
Most of the part houses that advertise in Hot V.W.s Mag. have nipple caps. As does Playboy magazine.

to get porsche nipples you have to go to a PCA member and have him (or her) twists yours.
Larry, say it aint so! You've gone legit?
I can get my nipple caps to spin in opposite directions!
It's usually good for an extra $20.

I'll volunteer cuz after purchasing my 2002 911/996 Carrera, I joined the PCA !!!!
Kevin, not really, but as Mike pointed out, a PCA member needs to twist the nipples, that's why I lied!!!!!
Tweeks.com should have them or be able to get them for about $30 each. I posted also at Spyderclub, am interested to get a crest and change mine over, I have the original Nardi button that came with the wheel.

Guys,
The 356 "nipple" hubcaps have the enamel crest you are looking for. Baby moon hubcaps as seen on some early Spyders didn't have the crest at all. If you go to the vendor page on the 356 Regisrty website 356regisrty.org there are several vendors which sell both types. Sorry to but in to your nipple tweeking. I'll be off now.
