Got a bit of a problem with my new centre cap badges. I bought them thinking that they would go straight on my cesaros but it turns out the centre cap of the cesaro is like concave....



and the badge is flat and cannot be bent...





So therefore it wont go on.

Anybody else had this problem when getting badges, and does anyone know where to get badges that WILL FIT! ???

Cheers.

well if its just the badge surface that will need to be skimmed shouldnt be an issue, what coating is removed is under the badge and the clamping marks on the edge of the cap.....small price to pay if you want what you have to work

you can get the centre cap stickers from ebay, proper vauxhall logo on the black background like the front grill badge, they are hard wearing once applied and look decent

they wont tommy, but you could stick them on top of the existing centre caps but they would sit proud of the surface.

Emailed them about the centre caps asking if they can supply the badges seperate or know where you can get them from and they said they cant do the badges seperate

So basicly if you get cesaros powdercoated you cant have centre caps or you can just without badges.
