Center Caps
 

Does anyone know where I can find/order a blank set of metal center caps, or know of anyone that can custom make a set of metal ones? I am getting my wheels powdercoated by Twist & Turns, but the color I am doing will be a custom color that you can't exactly match with pant, and I don't want the regular silver center caps I have now sticking out like a sore thumb. I'd like just a plain/blank set that I can have powdercoated along with the wheels. If anyone can help out, please let me know.

Thanks!

i measured the diameter of the original center caps for the Borbet wheels i've got on my hatch and ordered a generic set off of Ebay that were the same size. Then I ordered a set of flat Honda emblems to cover the blank center caps.

So they basically look like factory Honda center caps in my Borbet wheels...

Yeah, thats cool. But what I need to find is a set of blank metal caps that will pop in place of the plastic caps I have now with a 2-1/4" inner diameter. I e-mailed a couple of companies to see if they can make me a set in the size I need we shall find out! If I can do this, then I can just have them powdercoated to match the wheels.

If it's flat you could have a place like B&M sheet metal press you out 4 flat pieces of 1/8th in steel or aluminum and have that powder coated. Then use an auto body adhesive to attach them.

CCW could probably make them,but they'd be expensive,I'd say.
Any machine shop should be able to do it,but again,it may be expensive.

I ended up ordering a pack of 10 2-1/4" steel caps from McMaster-Carr. I got them in today and they fit (all I have to do is bend the metal tabs back after they are placed in the hole). I will now be dropping off the wheels tomorrow or Friday at the latest with Twist & Turns and getting the wheels and caps done at the same time so everything is uniform. I am just waiting on the e-mail from them to let me know all the materials came in. I had the tires removed on Saturday by Wayne at Quality, so I am ready to go. I decided on this color:

I was going to go with a magnesium blue, but decided against it since i want to keep the car clean. I think this color will look nice imo.

Just curious what did they quote you on the wheels?

$356 with everything. I had them order the powder/clear and handle all the shipping and everything. I didn't want to deal with possibly ordering the wrong thing or having any type of mishap.
