Nice. Where did you order these centre caps?

Are you sure that the Aero wheel kits could be still fitted when mounting these caps?

19 mm Wheel nut covers £4,50
64 mm Volvo Centre caps £ 8.50
Ebay.

Need to be removed before replacing Aero trims.
Just push on and off.
(I am sure it's faster. And uses more electric.

)

When I removed my aero trims I found that inside they were full of a reddish iron dust coming from the brakes.
Hard to clean, need to use a big brush...

Honestly I have thought to leave them off, the aluminium rims are nice anyway...

Do the Aero trims make any measurable difference to the aerodynamics, or are they just cosmetic?

IMHO I suspect only 1 kilometer of additional autonomy every 100 kilometers...

The photos show the larger discs on the twin-motor.

The brake disc and sliding callipers are not the best looking are they. Always going to look small behind such giant wheels I suppose. Not a fan of the whole diamond cut aero trim look but they are all at it at the moment.
