Default Floating Center Caps

I remember seeing on a Conti video a few months ago that Paragon was going to release some floating center caps for the C8. Has anyone heard news about this? I know they had trouble with the initial shipment and went back to rebalance them or something, but can't find any new information online.

How's about just sending Paragon a message on their website. They've always answered me...sometimes on the same day...

Not a bad suggestion to contact the vendor directly - who better to get production info from.

Have not heard about such center caps, but sounds like an interesting product.

I saw this episode of Conti also but have never seen anything on the Paragon site about floating center caps.

Actually. Korey mentioned or was asked about these on last week’s (HPO Monday night live or Brink of Speed’s Wednesday night live show, I’ve slept since then), and said they will be available soon. He even mentioned they will run ~$200.

Do you also hate that they made the C8 look like a Ferrari/European?
