I paid a ball bustin 25 a cap with free shipping from CJ. Certainly not cheap there either but you are going to be hard pressed to find them at a better deal.

They work very well with the many aftermarket wheels being produced. They have that retro/new feel since those caps originally came out in 2004.

Oh, and I have a Barton shifter now. Installed it a few days ago

That's a danm good deal!!

Awesome. I see they raised them 99 cents since I bought mine in summer. Lol. No worries. Still a great deal and glad I could help.

Not just the Bullitt, but all GT Premiums that had the Bullitt wheels on them. Mach 1s used the same center caps too. I don't mind the SVT ones, but I like the Tribars on non-SVT cars too.

I bought tri-bar center caps (vs the SVT caps). Wrapped them in Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric All-Season tires (255/40 fronts and 275/40 rears). I think these wheels go very nicely with Sterling Grey, just like on Gabe's '13....
Very nice!!

Oh nothing wrong with leaving the SVT caps on there.

That ^^^ looks really good (of course )

And I'm gonna have to live with the SVT caps for now ... not worth spending over $100 right now ...
