Default New Centercaps

I was about to order a set from Phoenix Graphix but a buddy of mine told me his uncle owned a detail shop and this is what he hooked me up with. It's not the same size as the actual centercap but I still think it's better than the ABS lettering.

Those are similar to the center caps off the 02 Colletors Edition. I like them

Do you have any pics of the whole wheel with them on?

Well just about anything is better than ABS on the centercap.

Vinyls, all I had to do was pop off the centercaps with a flathead screwdriver and once I had the black vinyl on I let that sit for about 3 hours, and then I slid the Firebird logo on the black and let that sit up over night. Definately a project to do at night once all your running around is done. Very satisfied with the product though.

Wow, something I never thought about doing that would've worked out much better: paint the original centercap in black, print out a picture of that emblem, cut it out with the exacto knife and paint the emblem on myself. The things we think to do after already making a decision on something are amazing.
