Strut Tower Caps

I saw these strut tower caps.
Does anyone have them?
What is your opinion of the quality if you do?
If anyone has others that I can see please post.

I've got them and they're cheaply made thin metal pieces , like something you would by at the local auto store. I got them at Moss Mustang and I wouldn't recommend them for the price I paid for them ...

I've heard nothing but good things with this Roush billet kit... pieces actually screw down.. not held on with adhesive.

Does anyone know if you can get these without the engraved Roush name on them? since my car isn't a Roush!

Yes... I called. Here's the vendor's response: "they can be ordered without the ROUSH engraving. A set of 10 pieces will cost you $87.99 per set. Stock #401936 "

This might be a dumb question but, do these sets only fit stock suspension components or will it fit aftermarket components as well?

I just went to the Roush Store and it says it uses double stick tape.

I have the UPR set, and LOVE THEM!! They stay on nice and tight (without using any silicone), and water can't get in there. Plus they look really classy, in the satin aluminum. Worth the money IMO!

The site you reference states "79-93 Mustangs". If you're asking about the S197, the set I referenced screws on.
