hubcaps? i think they have some plastic 5-star look-a-likes from autozone pretty cheap. you might want to invest in some rims.

I am sure the guy means The center caps.
And i believe they are probably gonna be a dealer part and expensive
Or you could get lucky and find some in a junkyard.

if im not mistaken, they make locks for center caps, sort of like wheel locks. just walk into a local wheel/tire shop, and ask about them, i dont think they are that expensive either.

You might want to check out www.classicindustries.com. i have an 86 TA and the replacements for that are $23.00 for the cap and $10.00 for the emblem. Incase you haven't heard of it they have color catalogs for $5.00 which have about every original replacement part for your car. I ordered one but they never charged my card.
