I was lucky enough to acquire mine a while ago, without paying the extortionist prices some were asking. At the time, a number of others were looking for them (or something similar).

Here they are... http://www.shelbystore.com/product-p/sh0069.htm


I'm not sure why but, ironically, Shelby's product page includes a picture of my engine bay. Too bad there are no royalties involved...

Thanks for the heads up, Norton, ordered yesterday :)

Please quit posting info like this, the NIB base/PP wheels available out of MI for a great price, etc. - too tempting! LOL

I like them, but wish they didn't all have to say Shelby on them. It's an all or nothing thing though.....

Are these the actual billet caps or plastic caps that go over your original caps? I have seen both. If they are billet ill be buying ASAP

They are all actual billet pieces. The Coolant and Oil "caps" fit over the factory plastic ones. The Brake and Washer caps, and Dispstick handle replace the factory pieces.

Backordered! Ugh...

Yep, thinking they'd ship out same day and got an Email from Dante:

"Good Afternoon,

We wanted to inform you the Shelby GT500 ENGINE CAP SET that you ordered are on Backorder. We expect them in within the next 2-3 weeks. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Thank you for your patience!

Have a great day!"

Powder coat should be easy but I actually have real black ones from a GT-H edition I just put a vinyl sticker over. These were very pricey I'm going to buy some just to have around.

Anyone else not pleased with the fitment on these? Got mine in today and the washer cap is a little loose, but I don’t think it’s going anywhere. The master cylinder cap, however, you could blow on that thing and spin it off. Absolutely terrible....not running that on my car.

Edit - placed a large washer under the rubber diaphragm that’s transferred over and that seems to have done the trick. Pretty snug now.

Just your typical flat washer....had a few large ones in a junk drawer. You need something to place under the rubber diaphragm to take up a little more space. Any hardware store should have something suitable. Hell you could probably even place some double sided tape under the diaphragm to add a little thickness, I’m sure that would work as well.
