Here is what they look like in their listing :bananasmi
and they have the Fish cap for the 'Cuda but they are a little more money than the Challenger caps... :dunno: but still good prices :wave:

I talked to one of the guys at Dale's Cuda Shop (Dale's son Charlie) last year at the Mopar Nats about their rimblow center caps. He had a couple samples with him, but they were not in mass production yet. I told him if he could correct all of the problems I seen with his samples, I would buy a lot of them. He has yet to contact me. I can see in these pictures that he still does not have them right. I'm not trying to put anyone down, but remember sometimes you get what you pay for and unless you can see some better pictures or see them in person, I would be cautious.

 I have all of the new rimblow style caps in stock and like everything I sell, 100% satisfaction guarantee or full refund. 10% discount off my website prices for all Cuda-Challenger.com members.

Dave, can you give us some comparisons or tell us the difference?   I for one don't know what to look for. I imagine you will be doing my wheel one days as it stands anyways. But we could use some of your talents to show us what the differences are and what to look out for.  Like maybe they arent as sturdy? or smaller? or shorter?   Or the rubber isn't as thick, or breaks off easy? Please let us know

 Now I'm basing this information just on the parts I seen at the Nats, they could have improved them some by now, but the picture currently on their site shows they're still the same. The parts they had were just the outer plastic ring that has the Allen head bolts. He had two versions with him, bright shiney chrome and painted dull silver. Both were made of the same plastic core. The Allen heads were quite distorted and undefined, wrong size hex, the black-out area was not painted, all edges were rounded, not very sharp or detailed. He did not have the backing plate, rubber centers, or fish. At that time, he did not have the Dodge caps started yet.
