    I took my car to the track yesterday ... had a great time. I'm a newbie (have only tracked a car three times, once with the Ferrari) ...

    But, toward the end of the day, yesterday ... I discovered that two of the wheel caps were missing the yellow disk with the prancing horse. Looks like the wheels got a bit warm and the adhesive agent holding the yellow disk in place released and the disk went flying ... probably when I went over rumble strip.

    So, now I am looking for a set of wheel caps. Anyone have recommendations?

    Thanks,

    The eBay listing for Ferrari Tampa Bay was PN 226245 and the photos look same as others I have seen listed other vendors. $38 for set of four seems like good deal.

    Did you receive them yet??
    If you scan down the page, you'll notice in big red words "Sold Individually".
    I'm real curious as to whether you got all 4 or just 1!

    Funny thing is...after I posted this, they reduced their price down to $30. a piece :D
    Now that's more within the realm (although you can get them for less than that).

    Always keep in mind, whether you're buying through eBay or elsewhere, you can always e-mail or call them with an offer even though it's only listed as Buy It Now.
    A lot of times, they'll take your offer as long if it's reasonable (reasonable in their eyes that is).

    I misinterpreted the original posting on eBay. Yes, FOTB was selling the caps individually and not as a set. Most sellers list the price for a set of four. I called FOTB and complained about the listing being misleading ... the headline stated caps (plural) and originally they had two additional photos showing a set of 4. Andrew at FOTB was very helpful and understanding. He sold me two additional caps at a cost that made my set of four virtually the same as I saw others on eBay.

    FOTB was very good and I can give them an endorsement.
