jim Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 Anywhere I can source them in the UK? I have seen them on courtesy parts website for $100, but want to avoid importing if I can. Also, will these fit the JDM 17" wheels? Quote

Also, will these fit the JDM 17" wheels? As an educated guess i`d say they wouldn`t fit that size wheel but i may be corrected on that. Otherwise at the end of this month i will be ordering in at least 5 sets, and the price at the mo will be around the £55 mark! If you`re interested let me know before then, thanks. Quote
jim Posted June 19, 2008 Author Posted June 19, 2008 Think you're right. The courtesy parts caps are 60mm in diameter and mine are 54mm. Quote

Otherwise, my apologies for misunderstanding. Quote
sunset350z Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 If they do that size cap then i`ll put you down for a set, otherwise the caps are for the 18" rays. Quote
sunset350z Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Hi, just to let you all know, i`ve ordered the `Z` center caps for the 18" rays wheels. Hoping to receive them before the autotuner show, so that i can give them out to those who placed an order for them. Also, have 2 "Z" emblems that replace the nissan badge on the engine cover!! If anyone wants one let me know, first come first served Obviously i`ll put one on my car and the other one i`ll let go for £20 Quote
M13KYF Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 where did you order your Z caps from in the end and how much? Quote
sunset350z Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Ordered them from courtesyparts, with postage they work out at about £60, but if i get stung for customs tax maybe looking at a bit more Quote
sunset350z Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Had a call from the shipping company UPS, and i`ve been stung for import tax TW@TS!!! Had to pay an extra £68 Will work out exactly how much the center caps are going to be after i try and get a good nights sleep Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Yeah that's the downside with importing. The price starts of competitively and then when the good arrive on the shores of good old Britain, the government take their slice and all of a sudden it's not such a good deal Quote
sunset350z Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Yeah exactly, the trouble is i cannot source these parts over here, so the usa was my only option. So far the price is £70, which aint to bad really. If i bought 1 set then i would of paid £90 before import duty, so still happy. Quote
M13KYF Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 thought this may happen. Makes them mighty expensive Quote
sunset350z Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Now have the Z center caps. Hows that for quick delivery Price will be £70 delivered, only got 4 sets!. Also got 1 `Z` emblem to replace the nissan badge on the engine cover, priced at £20 delivered. Can the people who originally asked for these pm me if they still require them, Cheers Quote
sunset350z Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Will be going to Brands Hatch on the 10th of Aug so can bring them along for pick up, which is better all round. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 sunset350z, if you haven’t already done so, why don’t you put them in the For Sale section as they’ll get more views, as this post is in Jims’ ‘Wanted’ post… Quote
sunset350z Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 I ordered these for members on this site and **REMOVED**, if any one backs out then any remaining sets will be offered for sale. A `Z` emblem for the engine cover is up for grabs at £20 if anyone is interested though But if the moderator would like to move this then feel free, otherwise i`ll have to write it all again when the time comes Quote
