Default Center caps for E88's?

Far as I know, nobody is making center caps for the E88’s.

The 3 holes are threaded. Do anyone know what they are intended for?

Any idea on the thread size?

Thanks for any info your willing to help me out with!

I believe they sell a center lock looking center cap. They are pricey...

Here you go... they sure look perty.

I'm not a huge fan of naked or the fake centerlock piece. If they were mine I would do something custom like this...

I don't think there is nothing wrong with the fake center caps. I actually think they look decent, everyone has their own taste and point of view. When I buy my set a photo shoot is in order.

I agree, I like the quality fake center caps from Rennline.

I bought the Rennline ones for my E88's and they are too small, they don't fit this application!

One reason it was so quick is that reportedly he got a lot of engineering assistance and one-off parts from RUF. Might be where the center caps came from.

Impressive.. I have never seen that rear wing. Love the front fenders.
