There are Used Hubcap and Emblem dealers around that buy good
examples from wrecking yards and file them away in bins by year and
model. And the price is usually on a sliding scale depending on
condition - you can ask for B or C grade and save.
If none of your local wrecking yards have what you need, try them.
It might help if you have a digital picture with a close-up of the cap
you need, and any part numbers that might be molded or printed on the
back side.
