Billet 85-87 Iroc wheel center caps!

I have organized a GP for custom billet 1985-1987 16"x8" Iroc wheel center caps! Five people are needed to place an order.We need five of any given design for each order.Example: 5 Iroc-z,5 Z28,5 Plain,etc.Engraving is set right now at Iroc-Z and Z28.Depending on interest, other design/wording is available,but 5 will be needed to get each done.The shop will only make them in sets of five because of the difficulty and time needed to set up for the machining of them.Once we have five people interested I will need each person to paypal me the money for them and I will then forward the payment to the shop once five sets of a given design are payed for.They are priced at $148.75 a set/plain or $178.75 a set/engraved, shipping included in the US.The shop will then drop ship each paid set to each buyer once made.These are not months out, as soon as five have paid they will be made within a week or two at most and shipped out.These caps are virtually theft proof as they bolt in from the back of the rim when unmounted with a thick billet aluminum ring to hold them on.If you are interested email me at:

john.winship@cmjackson.com

or

onebad82z@excite.com

Any money paypaled will be sent immediately to the shop.You can check my feedback under my full name or username here on TGO,I am an honest person.I am not out to rip anyone off.

Picture of the plain ones attached..

another...

Forgot to mention..these are not polished and are not offered as such either.That will have to be handled at buyers discretion.

....not interested

I payed the machine shop in my town 30 bucks to make the exact same thing. They are not engraved but look exactly as the pics shown.

Not trying to be rude but i figured id reply to this post so people could make an informed purchase. I feel that price is way to high (cuz i paid 30 for the same thing). People may be interested though if you sold them for around 75 per set. (i know you will still be making profit at that price.

Sorry for being a dink.

Just so we are clear.Pricing on these are set by the machine shop.I am making zero profit.I already have my set and am only trying to get others a set for themselves as back when I first tried to arrange this,others were highly interested.

in regards to your quote

"I am an honest person.I am not out to rip anyone off"

You may be an honest person but this machine shop is not honest and is out to rip you off. There is no justification for these items to be priced at $148.75 a set/plain. As i payed 30 for my set (showed above) and 50 for the set with the retainers (identical to your pics above) there is no justification that your machine shop can expect a 500% profit off their product.

If they do they are mad.

If you payed that price for yours you were robbed and should inform the police (LOL)

Pricing aside..can I get some clear pics of yours to look at?Those pics are a joke if you are trying to show what yours look like.

Lemme guess..those were taken with a camera phone!

I need some clear pics before I can agree that we got the same quality for much diffrent pricing.

were web cam pics

sorry about posting. Hope there are no hard feelings. Camara phone would have been better. Just bought one today and the pic quality is awsome. I have an 86 iroc and 91 stang. Check out my camera phone pic of my stang i just took.

Again sorry. Those do look pretty sweet.
