Only ones with all tabs intact and no gouges. I need one or two but can't remember, so two would be best. Hit me up with a price shipped to 15438. Thanks. Would like to get these ASAP.

ive been trying to get one for 4 weeks. Ive even offered to pay the price of a full wheel for one, to no avail. If you find someone with some, I need one. If I find someone with some, ill let you know.

If I find a full set I'll get you hooked up with one, since not only did the one of mine break but the other one has a broken tab on it and sits crooked because of that :mad:


BUMP!

considering how many thousand cars they came on, you wouldnt think center caps would be that difficult.

Aren't pizza, cheese, eggshell, crab, etc center caps all the same?

AFAIK, most of them have the same center cap. Wagons, Le Mans, Ninja, and Pumpers are all unique.

I called home and had my boy dig them out. There are four centers. I'll have to verify that all the clips are intact. I'll try to get pics of them if I can. My daughter has the digi-cam and she's out of town for a couple days.

Y'all decide who wants what and what they are worth.

I'll get pics as soon as possible. Probably be Sunday when my daughter gets home.

All four have all eight clip intact. They all have some scratches, but nothing deep. Part number on the back is 4284012 if you want to verify that they are indeed what you are looking for.

Hope that helps. These are a brushed aluminum finish. None of the scratches are deep. They would polish up nicely. I can't say 100% that these are off of crab rims, but AFAIK, Crabs, Pizza's, Swiss all use the same center. They are identical to the centers in a set of Swiss rims I have. It's been a long time since I looked at Crab rims.

CD Turismo is looking for two.

GLHS142 is looking for one.

I have no problem selling three and keeping one myself for a spare.

I also have no idea what they are worth or how hard it is to find a set. PM me with what you think they are worth. They are worth nothing to me so I just trust ya to be nice. I prefer Paypal.

Let me think about it as I was hoping they wouldn't have gouges in them or anything like that. They do have all the tabs so that's a plus.

I'll PM you tomorrow, I want to check my garage to see if I have any other pizza rim centercaps.

Hey thanks for the offer but the crab rims do have a different texture to them, so I'm going to pass on buying pizza rim centercaps, as I do have a couple of those at my garage but will just keep looking. Now I only need one crab rim centercap, as I got three of the ones I thought were broken to work.

Hey, thanks for the information. Very happy that I posted clear pictures before selling so you knew exactly what I had. I bought these sight unseen thinking they were Wagon centers. Now I have no use for them. Not the sellers fault either, like me, he thought they were identical. So at least now I know I have a set of Pizza/Swiss centers.
