Wow, nice touch! Are those actually emblems? They look raised to me.

lol they aren't the real emblems we have on the side of our cars, they are little decals made to fit for the hubs. I painted them, then put on the decals, then cleared everything so that is why they look raised.

Looks good. I have a set like that but they're red. I just need some plain centercaps for my ZR1's. Mine have the crossed Corvette flags and when you pull them off, there is an indention where they go.

Have you tried them on your car yet? I did the same thing and was pissed that the spokes looked "upside down".... ie: the stars of the wheels point down, not up..... And the SS emblems only go one way. Oh well. I fixed it on my 2nd set.


These are my 1st center caps:




The 2nd set:
