Default Latemodel resto screwed me!

Well i had a bent wheel this week and so i ordered a new 18x10 bullitt wheel for my Bullitt to replace the bent one. When i recieved the wheel not only does it look different from the old bullitt wheels i ordered from them 7 months ago but my centercaps(custom made for $125) do not and neither do the stock centercaps. The centercaps included look stupid as hell and when i called 50resto about this they told me that nobody on the market makes replacement centercaps for these wheels. So now i have one wheel that looks different from all the others and a centercap that doesnt match my others! The stock centercaps are too large for the hole in the new wheels. I'm pissed especially after all the business i've done with them. Anyone have any idea what i can do to fix my centercap problem or wheel issues?

Check out the AmericanMuscle website, they carry several different sized center caps for the OEM wheels and aftermarket wheels. That sucks about the wheel color being different, I guess you could always paint all the wheels to match, but that would be a PITA.

The color is correct it's the shape of the star pattern that's different it's tighter and pushed out more than the stock wheels. I would return it but it costs a lot of money to send it back and i would have to foot the bill.
