or have someone good with a lathe make some oem looking ones.
The original caps have not been available, new or used, sense the mid to late ‘80’s – but getting someone to make something with a lathe is a very good idea. It would be nice to have one to use as a template, first.
The problem with plastic wheel items – especially those that contact the wheel close the lug nut area is heat. A lot of hard heavy braking will cause the plastic to soften. Then a small pothole later, the softened plastic falls off.
The same thing with a few other Chrysler products. I had a ’92 Shadow America with black pop-on plastic caps.
Back in the late ‘90’s, the caps were hard to find – for the same reason. I have a few spares in my garage that I need to get out and sell – but I did a deep search for caps for it in the late ‘90’s and didn’t come up with a lot.
Dakota aluminum wheel caps are another one that comes to mind.
A decent wheel but without caps, they look very odd/off. My neighbor has a ’92 Dakota he bought new. He gave up looking for replacement caps many years ago.
Getting something made from metal and/or having a better method of attaching it to wheel would be a lot better option.
