Center Caps

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get center caps for my 77 and not to knock the guy's from LMC but the ones they cent me only fit the back and for some reason those flop around and the front ones are to small for the rottor hub. not sure if I should grind rotter to make them fit ot to just keep looking?
thanx

What kinda center caps you got? The ones held on by three screws? If so ebay and salvage yards have them.

There are all kind of center caps. Have you tried your local tire store? If they sell custom wheels they should be able to look up some center caps for you.

Yo Tex!
I wish I could say i've had good luck with LMC but I've ordered from them 3 times and everything was wrong.first i needed a new tierod and that came with on balljoint up and one down and I assumed it would be right so I painted it and found I could not return it because for that ,the second time I just ordered some wheather striping and it did not fit,like it was for a bronco or something,then I got the center caps and they sent me the ones to fit a 4x4 so I sent them back and they sent me the ones I have and only 2 fit the back and need help with a washer or something because when you bolt on the rim you can wiggel them around and the front do not fit over the rottor.
so theres my exp. with LMC
