 Posted: Sun Dec 24, 2006 4:28 pm Post subject: Fuchs Hubcaps "Wheel Covers" |
 |
|
I was thinking about Rims for my bug! but i´m running out of Money 
So i thougt i´ll just make my own! out of Steel for my wide 5´s 
but now i found some Hubcaps in my granpa´s Barn they look like Fuchs Alloys but they just Caps!
And now i´m wondering if they look good on my Resto cal?
Dose anybody have some picts of those on a Bug?
what would you think about it?
P.S. sorry for my bad English. I´m German and not use to writte it, i´m only use to talk it with my Family in MN and some Frinds in GBM  |

A friend of mine has a few of these in his shop. Not sure if they're complete though. I'll see if I can swing by and take some pictures...

| Don't think you can get away with hucaps that look like fuchs. If you wanna run them fine, just remember that anyone who knows anything about fuchs will be snickering anytime you are around. Just my personal opinion. Good luck with whatever you decide. |

Thanks for answering!
@gschan yes thats the Caps! Porsche Style Wheel covers!
but how would they look on a Bug? with Stock High in the back and Fenderskirts and lowered in the front
I thought i´s a rare Asseccorie and my Ride is a Resto Cal so?
but if anyone would say "oh look at this Poor Nut!" i better weld my some own Wide 5´s that would cost my only some time and some Junkmaterial
because i don´t have the money to buy me some Alloys espezially non with Porsche Patern otherwise i had to change the Drums too! |

I agree. Never liked them myself.

| Slap 'em on and if YOU like them leave them on it. It's your car, and if you like them and don't have to break the bank to enjoy the car a little more good for you. |
