Default Where to find a replacement LX wheelcover?
Had a bit of energetic driving this weekend and I've managed to hit a wee little pothole and lost a lx wheelcover.
Any ideas on getting a cost effective replacement? I'm in melbourne. :(

That's a bargain considering they're about $250-300 each from Ford.

17" MP3 rims. You know you want it.



They don't look too big on the Fiesta unlike some wheels on some cars.
