Ok odd topic i know but.... Im just wondering if anyone has replaced their XM wheel trims with any other citroen ones? and if so do you have any pics?
I nearly got some alloys off ebay earlier but i didnt, and my xm trims are looking a little tired, dull and a little scuffed now. So im wondering if i should put on some different wheel trims or try to find more of the original S2 ones for it to replace mine? Thanks. -------------------- 1995 'N' XM 2.1TD VSX Manual Estate, magenta red - 62K miles

Yes very true, im ideally after some S2 ones to replace my worst ones.
Ill keep a look out on ebay for some, i can imagine they are quite hard to get hold of though. -------------------- 1995 'N' XM 2.1TD VSX Manual Estate, magenta red - 62K miles

Have you thought of re-juvenating your current set?
Get some sand paper and sand down any rough edges from kerbing, and then repaint the wheel trims. I did this on my xantia a few years ago and had excellent results. Certainly cheaper than buying a new set, and look a million times better than any of those shitey aftermarket ones. -------------------- 1980 CX Athena (W)
