    I'm assuming he wants to stay OEM. I actually need the hardware that connects the wing to the stanchions, mine are getting stripped.
    FYI my endplate screws have come loose a couple times, I had to loctite them and problem solved. Would have sucked to lose one of those on the track

    Thanks for the input. I do want to stay OEM. The screws have the security dot in the center of the screw head, not easy to find in a hex head.

    Those security screws are out there. I remember coming across them and thinking that they must be a pretty common sort of screw for security applications because I had seen many similar listings. So it's not like FCA used some really obscure screw type. It's more obscure than something you would find at Home Depot, or Ace, but its not obscure in the giant world of fasteners that you can obtain online.

    Kind of weird for something that literally designed to be adjustable by the owner, lol.

    ^^^ Indeed. I was looking at the time for something unrelated to the car, so was surprised to happen across it and did not think about making a note of where it was. I would suggest posting back here again once you find the exact screw. Good luck in your search.

    Lower chance of stealing wing ????? Maybe I grew up in the wrong neighbor hood. A couple of security screws wont slow anyone down, if they want it they will get it and they wont waste their time on a wing they will take the whole car. Good news :It would be very similar to stealing a Picasso...........what are they going to do with it within the united states?

    Lol, don't take your $150k car to places where people walk around with torx bits to steal half your wing. That's some straight hood stuff right there, lol.

    I've had wheels stolen off my cars twice in a grocery store parking lot. Back in 2000 and again in 2013. Came out and the cars were on blocks. In Scottsdale. I didn't know there were places in the world where nobody steals.
    Right now there's an epidemic of catalytic converters being stolen just to make a hundred bucks or so. They do this in broad daylight all day long here in Arizona.

    I've had a motorcycle wheel stolen (which is weird because it's easier to take the the whole bike), but motorcycles are just magnets for theft. Maybe I've just pretty lucky with cars. They always seem to get hit (multiple times while parked), but no thefts. Good luck getting my Viper wheels in the air, let alone stealing them or a cat though.

    Viper ACR wing end plates would make a great wall decoration piece. Great to go with the photos of the graffiti that you've done.

    Anyone have any pics of CF ACR endplates on a colored painted wing (i.e. non-black)?

    I've tried to PS a few and it looks decent, but there must be some real life photos where someone has done this. I'm thinking about it, but would like to see it first.

    I remember having my parts manager look up to see if the actual screws had a part number a little while back, but you could only order them as part of the end plate kit.
