vdub dust caps advice for a girl please
« on: 28 April 2005, 11:03 »
Someone has stolen my vdub dust caps    :angry:    as you can imagine i am very upset, i loved them and now my wheels look bare without them.   I'm thinking of looking for some more but worried that they will get stolen too.   Any advice on how to prevent this or should i just buy in bulk???


As a girly girl i feel accessories are a must!!!


Thanks folks

Take care   DLxx

you can get some that have a little grub screw so in theory they can't be nicked.....but any fool with a small allen key can have them away as well!!!!  but it might deter passing scally's!

They still nick them even when they are the ones with grub screws. I used to have a set a set but unfortunately i parked next to a kids skate park and the bmx scum kept stealing them. I got sick of replacing them!
