Talking A huge thanks to this forum !

Been around here for a while and finally picked up my '07 Redfire GT Vert in July. This site is a wealth of information and I just wanted to say thanks and post a couple pictures to date. I kinda like the wheels ......

So "Thanks"!

Got 'em on Ebay ...... do a search for mustang center caps. They're '67 - '68 styled steel wheel caps by "Scott Drake" ..... had to do a little custom fitting but I definately like the look.

Nice wheels. I would have gone with the red Scott Drake center cap instead of blue as your car is red and doesn't have any blue accents. Great mod though.

I tossed that around a bit but wanted to set off the wheels, thought it would've been a little too much red. Actually had a 68 w / blue center caps and liked the look.

Thanks

Where did you find the red center caps? I've only seen the black ones.

Dallas Mustang has them... they're local to me so I just went and picked them up. They're made by Scott Drake, so I'm sure you can find them online somewhere else if DM is more costly than other places.

It's not too bad to fit them. Used the American Muscle spinner kit, drilled a couple holes in the mounting washer that comes with the kit and a couple self tapping screws from behind into the existing threads in the center caps.

Like the center cap...but agree that "red" would go better with your color. But it's what makes YOU happy...so enjoy!

Hey Chris, nice looking ride you got there. You'll have to hook up with some of the NJ members of Bad Mustangs Club and stop by some of the shows we all do as a group. Look forward to seeing your car in person. Glad your excited.
