Default 2003 Mustang... Need help with Center caps

Hi everyone~

I am brand new to this forum but it seems that you may be able to help. About 2 years ago, i bought a set of chrome Cobra R 18" rism for my 2003 mustang convt. Well, after a year, they were pitting and i received abrand new set. However, i had 4 different center caps. I have been trying to get new centercaps that were not stupid looking considering i spent $2K on the wheels. Well, TOwn fair tire could not help me since that tire company was illegially using the Cobra replica. SO, now i have no idea what to do. I do not know what size mine are and does anyone know where i can find center caps to fit these wheels? i did find a pair on ebay but am not sure if they will fit. Looks like they would fit OEM Cobra wheels??

Thank you,
Kristin

You might try AmericanMuscle.com: they have a number of replacement center caps at a fairly reasonable price.

BTW, I've been told by DiscountTiresDirect.com guys that you can only get OEM replacement caps from a dealer because of copyright/patent issues that prevent after-market people from replicating them and then selling them as "replacements" when they really aren't "true" replacements, only "copies".
