Default Looking for ALUMINUM ZR1 center caps

Hey everyone.. I purchased a set of C4 ZR1 rims. I've since had them powder coated but my problem is this.. The center caps are PLASTIC. I am looking for some aluminum ones (so they can be powder coated to match the rest of my rims). I have searched everywhere it seems and can't find any (googled, ebay, searched the forums, etc). Does anyone have any ideas where to find the aluminum center caps?

There used to be a place on ebay IIRC that made canter caps. All you needed was some measurements and they would make something up for you. So you could get an image or whatever in them, but they were made of aluminum.
