I am looking at having some Dunlop Mag Centre Caps made.
They will be a copy of an original cap as per the photo.
Made from solid aluminium or steel, CNC turned.
Chrome plated.
Professionally made stickers for the emblem.
The main difference from the originals being that they are solid and not hollow.
Held in from behind as per original with the spigot to locate them on the mag.
Price is yet to be finalised but it looks like they will be a little over $100 per set of four.
A bit more than the plastic ones from the UK, but solid, not plastic.
These will be a quality product professionally made.
If I have a few sets made, who would be interested in buying them at that sort of price?
If there is a lot of genuine interest the price will come down a little.

That's a good price for a set of 4. There is power in numbers and I hope people take you up on the offer.

A while ago I had to get some Tasman ones machined up and they were much more expensive than that.

They will turn out better than what you imagine!

Got the price on the chrome today.
Price should be around $125 for four including stickers and postage in Australia.
They will be made from solid aluminium.
Hope to place the orders on Monday.
Estimate about three weeks all going well.
