Post a WTT (want to trade) ad. My guess is someone will swap with you.

I have a set of white ones I just bought and was going to send them out to get carbon fiber'd. It doesn't matter which one I send. So if you pay shipping to send you mine and you send me yours I can trade. I also have Chrome ones on the car now if you prefer them Chrome.

Nope... I already have checkered caps. And on the JB MCSC, I had those caps professionally painted Chili Red and clearcoated. And the PW MINI...even though I paid for it and I hate the chrome caps, it's not my call because that MINI belongs to my SO. :impatient

Sorry !! But hey, if nobody wants to trade... you still have a very cool set of mirror caps. You can't lose !!

After all, everyone knows that the checkered mirror caps adds 20hp!
