Hiya...I'm a new owner of an 'X' reg. 2ltr Prelude Sport. Just had the alloys refurbished to a very high standard by Raw Wheels in York...only problem is the plastic studs covers are in a proper mess. They can't be dipped like the wheels & need to be stripped & re-painted. Question is, does anybody have a set in good condition to sell or, is aware of a supplier - or are they available as a new part? The wheels are 4 stud 16"...

not sure but i think you might be on about the same wheels as these
either that or you could post up a photo of the wheels you have

Ive seen a few sets of centre caps come up on ebay.
I can only find one centre cap for sale on ebay at present:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CENTRE-CAP-HO ... SwboVXPEL4
Not a very good one and expensive.
I think most people just sand back the caps and repaint them with a rattle can
You could put up a wanted ad as follows:
Motegi Alloy Wheel Centre Caps
The wheels you have are 16" Motegi 4studx114 and were only available on 2L 5th gens - 17" Motegi 5studx114 were available to 2.2L vtec - fairly sure the centre caps from the 17" wheels will also fit the 16" wheels.
Hope this helps.

Hiya...thanks for your reply, and interest. I think I'll get them sanded back & re-paint them. Difficulty's gonna be getting a good match I guess. Onwards & upwards!!!
