center caps for enkei rpf1s???

I am tired of looking at the rusty end of the front axle bolt.

some websites say they have rpf1 centercaps and other websites say Enkei doesn't make center caps for 15's. only for 16-19's.

and they retail for $25 a piece. too much.
I tried the caps that came with my Kosei wheels - didn't work.

So I thought maybe I could put a big chrome acorn nut over the end of the axle. but without a hole for a cotter pin, it will eventually become a projectile.

anybody have a cheap solution for a center cap?
only need 2 for the front. the back isn't so ugly.

Look at Goodwin racing. They sell prouct for Miatas which also fit our cars. It says on their website you can modify one of the Konig helium centercaps to fir the RPF1

hmm i just ordered some of these also... in black... wasn't aware of the lack of center cap.

terrible pics i know but here's the wheels...




yeah apparently Goodwin racing does sell some helium caps that fit the 15s and some 6UL center caps that also fit... i ordered both just to see which are better.

Thank you for the tip. I looked at www.good-win-racing.com but their web-site has listed the Helium Center Caps as "Out of stock" for a while.

Are there any other places that sell them?
