Cheap Center Caps

[geezer]

After seeing what a set of Watanabes center caps went for on Ebay last night I started looking for alternatives. I think it was $131.00 or something close to that. Today, while wandering around in Princess Auto I spotted these plain jane stainless steel caps that I thought might fit. After a 30 second trim with my cutoff saw, they popped right on. A perfect fit. They might look a little cheesy now but I think with a set of stick on emblems they will be OK. And the price is right, 88 cents apiece. They have a slight taper, so they could be adapted to hub openings of + or - 2 3/4". If anyone would be interested in a set I'll be happy to pick them up.

I don't know, the bar code kind of sets them off from the regular run-of-the-mill center cap......

Princess Auto strikes again - I bought two 6 X 9 speaker boxes there: wired, wrapped in felt, spring loaded color coded connectors, batten stuffed = $8 similar but not as nice at Future shop $33.

I wish I knew befor I got mine at MS - plastic $35 + shipping.

I wonder how they would look with the Z stickies on them

Personally I kinda like the bar code stickers... gives a kind of Minnie Pearl effect. Bet the MSA Z stickers would fit nicely though.

that's a good and economical substitution! I just like to leave mine without a cap but your find is actually a great idea. And it's only 88 cents and stainless steel.
