Hi Mitchell
Yes, looks don't count..
if they don't fit....

I have one very nice late model cap...
maybe stainless... ??
but it won't fit onto the wheel..???
it now dents when You try to knock it on...??

so, be careful..
I know of one fellow who used early caps...
2 original and two brasillian or whatever..
He fitted both types...
but the non genuine ones didn't fit on with the clips....??
Not sure what he did??? lol

so, if You can, try the caps on Your wheels before buying..

cheers

LEE


PS: Best alternative is to find 4 good non rusted original caps.
polish with carnubra wax every few weeks... Lee
well every few months with genuine caps...lol
