STi Enkei valve caps

Would anyone know where I can purchase in Aus, not Subaru Aust, at least 3 caps to suit MY08 charcoal rims.

Don't say I didn't warn you, they'll get stolen. I had a set and some punk ass kids flogged them :angry2:

I confess. I was on holidays in Brissie, saw this silver wagon with sweat Enkeis and thought well if I can't have the wheels at least I can have the valve caps :mrgreen:

Bah! Just buy those plastic black ones. No one will steal those.

Ha...so I wasn't the only one.....way back when I had my MY99 Rex some theiving POS stole my Enkei caps too.....couldn't find them anywhere for love or money....eneded up emailing Enkei in Japan as a last resort and would you believe about a month later a full set rocked up in my letter box with a letter in Japlish explaining that this was a one off jesture and would not be repeated.....lets just say I was impressed and carried a 10mm open ender in the car from that day onwards.

These, http://spin-caps.com/ - yes the site does look abit dodge, but payment is via Paypal and i've got all my orders.
Got them on 3 cars - no idea if anyone has tried to flog them, but all 3 cars still have full sets.

Hmm, pity the only caps they sell are chrome or billet. Personally I wouldn't go chrome caps for a charcoal wheel, but to each their own.

Got these from Supercheap for only $3.99. The black anodised caps aren't quite a charcoal blend, but it's cheap and looks metallic. Wonder if these are the same ones Shane's talking about.
