Just got a beautiful 2004 coupe with some custom wheels and custom exhaust. I'm missing one of the center caps from one of the wheels and have no idea what they are. Anybody have any idea ?



As long as were at it, anybody have any idea what kind of stainless steel exhaust this is and what it cost?



Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

 

Can't help you with the wheels . . .
However - you must post a sound clip of that exhaust!

Congrats on your new ride and welcome.

 

Guess I should have searched the forum a little bit first. From looking at some of the other threads, these must be Stern wheels, although I'm still not sure which model. I still haven't seen any with the same center cap as mine. Anybody have any idea where to get this center cap?

Here's a better pic of the wheel and exhaust:

 

Try Otis inc. LA. You can e-mail them from the e-bay store.

~ here are the specs on your rims...

its called an ... 'alba monaco'... and a link to hopefully assist with a cap.

Andrew is there anything you don't know about these cars? You can't leave this forum!!!

 

~ lol...

i help when i can.

 

They look a lot like the set of Stern ST-8 Hyper Mesh II that I just bought.

 

Andrew...the Encyclopedia Brown of the Crossfire realm!

 

Thank you very much. Very strange, the Alba looks almost exactly like a couple of the Stern models. They must both be made by the same original manufacturer.

Looks like I can get the cap for $20 directly from Alba: http://www.wheelacc.com/Merchant2/me...gory_Code=ALBA

 

A company called Golden Apple Corporation makes the Stern and ADR wheels. I don't know who makes an Alba wheel, but you're right they do look a lot like some of the Stern wheel lines.

 

This looks like the $29.95 muffler at Autozone. I would guess that's where it's from.

 

Welcome to the best forum on the net. You have just joined the best source of Crossfire information available. Enjoy your new Crossfire.

 

Show's how much you know. It's a very nice stainless steel system all the way up to the cats.

 

What ev, dog...

 

Alba sold its company years ago to Wheel Pros. They only sell wholesale they won't sell direct to the public, well most one piece wheels are made overseas probably in the same factory. I hope you did not spend a lot of money on those wheels.

 

God, is everyone on this forum such a jerk? Read the original post, bought the car with the wheels already on it. Already got the replacement cap. I'll avoid this place since you people seem to be such immature jerks.

 

Please don't leave! Not all the posts were rude and there is quite a few very good posters on here. We need all the members we can get and if you have anything to bring to the forum then it will be welcomed. Just simply ignore those who upset you and stay. Hang out with the rest of us who wish to gain insight about our cars and learn how to mod our vehicles.

I hope to be able to mod my car to a very in-depth degree and history has shown me, that it takes as many knowledgeable posters that we can find.

So again, please stay and converse with those you wish to and ignore those who have nothing to offer other than; stupidity, ignorance, naysayer etc.

 

Don't do that. I like the exhaust, it must have originally been very expensive, i paid at least $500 for the magniflow with the tips. Some people on here say things and they can't be taken in the wrong context. The rims look great and so does the exhaust. Are you planning on doing anymore modding yourself?

 

It's odd that the tips on the exhaust seem to point towards the sky.

I wonder if the exhaust fills up with water condensed out of the exhaust gases until acceleration and/or heat starts burning it off?

Are there drain holes in front of the upward bend to let water out?
