Orange Centre Caps Benefit special edition

[Sibbo]

Anyone know where i can get a replacement centre cap for my Benefit edition? One of mine got stolen along with the Citroen logo tyre valve caps. Can't find an orange one anywhere! Have been to Citroen dealer and they don't have one on their system. Dealer is contacting Citroen Technical but this is likely to take some time. Citroen UK haven't answered the same question yet either. Can't believe they don't do a replacement. In all the adverts for this model is listed as a feature - Orange roof, door mirrors and centre caps...Any help would be much appreciated.

Despite some serious googling and checking eBay, Amazon and Gumtree, I can't find any that would match the orange you need for your Benefit Edition. Good luck with getting them from CUK!

The only thing I could suggest is get 4 white ones from eBay and then take off one of your existing ones and see if some friendly car paint place or scratch repair company (Chips Away maybe) can get it colour matched and paint the white part orange for you.

Let us know how you get on.

Cheers Funky. Yep spent ages searching but no joy. Also came to the same conclusion of re painting. Going to wait and see if Charters Citroen get anything from Citroen Technical but not holding my breath! I can get a set of 4 on eBay for half the price of one ordered from Citroen (they wanted £25!!!)
Thanks again.

If your roof and mirrors are the same orange as the centre caps, the paint codes needed are on the label where the tyre pressures are on the door panel.

Thanks for your help Funky. My wife reminded me that her cousin is an accident repair specialist so he's going to do the painting for me. Trouble finding a single white cap for a reasonable price now! Might have to get one of those from Citroen. You never know they might come up with an orange one but knowing the service I've had from them in the past... .....

Saga continues. Citroen wanted the part number off the back of one of my existing caps. With that number they think they can get a new one. Took one off easy enough but 3 of the 5 thin plastic lugs that hold it in the wheel disintegrated! Now i need 2 new ones!!! Wondering if the other one wasn't stolen and it just fell to bits and came out now. Very cheap plastic that Citroen want £25 a piece for - rip off! But if i want to keep everything original there's no choice really. With the raised Citroen symbol on the cap its very difficult to mask and paint apparently.

Would it not be easier (and cheaper) to get 4 white ones from eBay and get your wife's cousin to paint them? Sure it will be tricky, but as long as the colour code is matched, it should look spot on.

He wasn't keen on doing it because it's difficult to mask the raised Citroen chevron. I could try someone else though. White ones aren't that easy to come by either. Nothing from Citroen about the correct ones yet. Will.probably get black ones in the end.

I can find black, white, silver and red caps on eBay Sibbo
