New Plastic Centerpiece???

Does anyone know where I can score the little plastic center "Ford" emblem that comes on stock wheels?

I have a Ford Ranger FX4 XLT, and some little punk from my nieghborhood stole the plastic piece out of the middle, so 3 of my 4 wheels have the plastic covering...and one doesnt. It really pisses me off, anyone know where I can score one?

If I knew who the little f-er was I would love to, but theres a lot.

I would hate to go steal it off someone elses ride, that would be really really mean.

If I can get it for less than $20 somewhere then that would be preferable.

I will post in the classified section to see if anyone has an extra one laying around, off of a spare tire.

Ebay

I'd get more than one. The thief will probabaly be back. If you get 4, then you have a better chance of catching him.

www.1stfordparts.com = $8.78

They say the MSRP is $11.70 so it will probably be cheaper just to get it from your dealer because of shipping.

EDIT: And this is for the small Grey Centerpiece from the 5 Spoke 16" Rims.

Yeah, although I wouldnt mind getting the chrome center pieces, I dont think they will fit.

Correct, i have the 5-Spoke stock wheels

I will order a couple center pieces right now!

Thanks for all your help guys!!

What category did you find the wheel seals under?

I found some for a 2 wheel drive, and I would guess that they are the same.

I guess I will give them a call, check shipping and such
