I agree with Mike on both counts Plus Buy the caps and buy the mirror covers for later.

I would still take it. Who really cares if you win a trophy. I feel car show are more about having a good time with other car people. Also I dont think it looks to bad without them

Center caps can be had for cheap, i would just go buy a set of 4 and have them with out any logo on them all you need to know is how big the bore is

JEGS Performance Products 671021 JEGS Stainless Steel Center Caps

JEGS Performance Products 671020 JEGS Stainless Steel Center Caps


i do belive most places that sell wheels should have them in stock so could probably pick them up localy

Do you have the stock rims?

I would take it as is. As others have mentioned, no one is going to give you any crap about not having them.

That truck has so many awesome features that I bet most wouldn't even notice that it doesn't have any caps

But if you can, I would try and find a matching or get a set of four new ones. White mirrors would look cool too though

Looks great with the addition of the brow and tint.
