Please Help: Lost wheel center cap
Guys, I'm new here. I bought my Saleen back in the winter. I finally got it out of the garage and onto the road and what do you know, after 28 long years I lost a center cap. Can anyone help me locate a replacement or would anyone happen to have one laying around? Please help!

Dave, thank you for the quick reply. The center cap is off a 1989 Saleen and they are American Racing 5 Spoke. I've attached a picture.

Also, check your remaining caps to see how tight they are. |

I will do that. I took the three remaining off for safe keeping. The car is immaculant. They'll just be going on for car shows now. Thanks for the reply.

Help: Center cap guidance - 5-spoke ARE
Guys,
I got my hopes up because I found a set of four center caps for my vehicle. Once they shipped and I got them, my hopes were quickly shattered. They are off of a 86-87 Saleen. They do not fit, so my search continues. Anyone with any ideas as to where to locate a 1989 Saleen Mustang ARE 5 spoke center cap please help. Furthermore, I know these wheels can be very expensive to replace. I'm thinking about buying another set of rims just to drive around on. That way I could leave my stock OEM rims in the garage and drive around on the spare. Is this common practice amongst the community or no? With the difficulty in parts, I'm half tempted to sell this car and look for another toy. |

They're plain black. They just are for earlier years so they won't work.

Still looking..please help!
Guys, still in search of a center cap for a 1989 Saleen Mustang. I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find them anywhere. I know somebody has got have some that can help me. I can't hardly believe guys just roll around without center caps on these cars.
If I can't find a center cap, my next step is rim replacement. I've already wasted my effort and money on wheels that wouldn't fit due to the offset. The rear stuck out too far and the front wouldn't clear the hub assembly. Is anyone rocking and aftermarket rim/tire combo that they would care to pass along? Thanks, in advance. |

It appears that website has what I need but they're out of stock. Who knows when they'll come back in. I'm not sure if that's the exact one or not but it's very close.
I wouldn't even know where to start on the 3D printer. I don't know who to contact or anything. Check the forums. Nothing there that isn't already sold. I continually check eBay too. I lost on one by $1 because I was at work! |

Thank you so much for the hyperlink. I was able to buy it now. It appears it should fit perfectly but I'll keep you updated. I have a few questions regarding your build. Do you have a personal email I can send a few questions to?
Thank you again for your help! |

I just lost one too. Any leads? I am looking into having some 3D printed...we'll see.
seems like a few years ago...these were a dime a dozen on ebay? |

I found one, ARE center cap. Not "officially" a Saleen center cap but it'll do. I just have to have the new decal made. One of the tabs was broken off too and I still paid $45 😁
eBay seems to be the go to place. Let me know if you end up having some 3D printed. Might be cheaper for us to go in together and buy 8 rather than a single set of 4. |
