During the mass clearout at work, I found these hiding in a car. They aren't moondisks, to me, they give a similar finish. Have some crappy night pics:   I'm not convinced... |

Citroen caps? Shame about the big valve window. Would look better if this was filled somehow.  |

Definitely win. As very cool hubcaps rather than Moondiscs though.

Those are some really cool wheel covers. Real faux (?) Moon disks are for the bin while screw-on Moon disks are for the win!

Moggy: they are 14" diameter, I'm changing the tyres to 175/60s once I've found another pair locally. Vwpowered: I'm not going to paint the bumpers as its taken 7 years to grow all the green curse word thats on them, I kinda like them like that |

Eh? *head asplodes* educate me please. Real Moon disks would be the type that you use screws to attach them to the wheels, like this (notice the three screws on each cap and how the painted rim lip is exposed? Cool!):  Then are the "faux" Moon disks that snap into the wheel flanges like a regular hubcap, like this (notice how they stick out from the rim lip? YUK!):  |
