That sucks! Those are pretty expensive, aren't they? Stupid thieves. I'll never understand the mentality of taking someone else's stuff that they worked hard to pay for.

To replace their own center caps from OEM wheels they purchased? They fit on rpf1s apparently.

It is perfectly possible your center caps just became loose over time due to heat, and they flew out on their own. Ask me how I know.

Are all of them gone or just the fronts? If all of them are gone then some asshole probably did steal them.

yeah, mine also all 4 gone. I still had it in the morning and I lost it sometime yesterday while it was parked.
I can see little scuff mark from the thief trying to pry it off..
Is there any substitute for OEM center caps? I dont feel like buying it off ebay/Craigslist to get it stolen again but I dont like see my wheels nuts..
