Help please - photo of spare wheel cover

Post by Ade316 » Fri Jan 20, 2017 12:20 am

Hi, I am looking to track down a photo of a Vitara Mk1 spare wheel cover as I can't source it and want to have one made specially.

I have a photo of it from an old 1993 Suzuki genuine accessory brochure in black which I've attached, but I am trying to find a photo in white. The part number in white was 9906-83500-00W. I have a black and white photo but the quality is not good enough.

Does anyone have a photo of this cover in white with red letters? Either from an old photo or brochure?

Thanks very much for your help
Ade

Crikey, i have seen a couple come up on ebay every so often, don't search for Suzuki Vitara Spare Wheel Cover, use tags like Suzuki Wheel Cover, Spare Wheel Cover, Spare Cover etc

They did one the same for Jimny's so I reckon the Vitara one is real!

My bad, poor communication. I didn't mean it was fake, I meant you could use photoshop to make the black cover into a white cover and send that image to be made up into a real cover.

Thanks for the replies they're appreciated. Dealers don't carry accessories anymore unfortunately. I can use the black cover for the design of a white one, but what I wanted to confirm was if on the white cover there is a border between the red lettering and the white background. On the black cover there is a white border but I don't recall a black border on the red lettering of the white cover. So if anyone has a photo I'd be very grateful. Thanks very much
