You need to contact them and tell them you want to pay for it ASAP.
If they contact their home insurance, and pass on your car details it will set in motion a claim. Even if it doesn't go through it's likely to be kept on file and you'll have to declare it for up to 5 years then.
So I needed 2 centre caps, which is over £30 for official OZ ones.
I instead decided to buy 4 new blank caps of the same diameters (inner and outer), some di-noc and some stickers from N2grafix. Total cost about £16
Made them up today:
Official on the right, mine on the left
And with their...
This!
You can easily copy them though. £5 for some di-noc CF stuff, £5 for some OZ stickers from N2grafix on here, lacquer over the top and they look identical.
I dropped them off yesterday and they are being done in the audi grey.
I got them off Gumtree, which is possibly the dodgiest place to buy stuff ever but they came and were relatively cheap.
Can't say I'd be bothered if it was always online. My broadband hasn't been down for a long time.
We went without for about a week in 2010 but that was due to cancelling sky ADSL and going to BT infinity (there was no migration system in those days for fibre), apart from that I can't remember...
It's no effort really.
I have had to buy new spigot rings, as mine weren't worth messing with, but cost is:
Wheels - £195
Courier - £28
Refurb - £64
Spigot rings and centre caps - £25
Total - £312
So less than half the price of new, bargain!
Just to update this for anyone searching for answers.
OZ changed the centre bore at some point, they used to be 67.1 but have since changed to 75.
I don't know when the change was made, but ultra's are only a few years old so it's recently. Mine are early ones, and are 67.1, which luckily...
Cambelt could be due on age, plus a bit to tidy up the wheels (I think at least one was curbed) and a splitter (£120 if you're fussed about genuine) and it's not such a bargain.
Little update
Dan@M.A.D is making me up a plate for the cruise buttons, unfortunately it might not be fitted for a while as I go back to Uni a week on Sunday so it will have to be when I get back home at the end of May :(
But, these turned up. Bought them on Gumtree (which is dodgy as if...
Think I've settled on the audi grey again.
Just waiting for the tyres to come off and the guy is removing the spigot rings too, then I'll get them down to the refurb place.
Yep, finally came today, although not too happy about the description of the tyres. He said 2 with plenty and 2 just gone illegal. The 2 with plenty have 2mm and 3mm on them, the 2 that have just gone illegal:
I actually cut myself and started bleeding from the sharp canvas coming through...
Choose quick guys, I am setting off to the refurb place asap!
These came today, was going to go anthracite, then decided silver, then thought that looks a bit bright so decided for the Audi Matt Grey. Now they have come I quite like silver again, thoughts?
The audi grey is the same as the...
