Hey guys. For the spinner center caps for the bullet wheels, how do you replace them from the blue ford ovals? Do you have to remove the wheel, or can they pop off from the outside?

I believe that they can just pop off

The spinners pop off so easily I constantly worry someone will steal them.

I have a question too... I just ordered a rear blackout vinyl panel and it already has a hole in it for the fake gas cap thing. Should I be able to put the sticker around the cap or should I take the cap off for good measure? Pluuuuuus, if I do end up removing the cap, does it re-apply well or will I need to get some more tape for it?

Blackout panel

The hole is plenty big enough to just go over the "gas cap". That's one of the things guys don't like- there is a small amount of the paint that shows around the opening.

I think that people complain about the Xenon plastic blackout panel. Mine is off of ebay and is vinyl. I got the vinyl one because someone who had it on this site told me that he loved it and no paint shows. But it would be a pain to start applying it and have to take off the badge and it would be a pain to take off the badge and have that be a waste of time because I didn't need to do so. Ughh, what to do, what to do
