Default Where to find replacement centercaps for Boyd Coddington wheels?

I'd like to get a set of center caps for my Timeless 5's that don't have that crappy white logo in the center. I know that someone had mentioned that they could get them. I sent whoever it was an e-mail a while back and never received a response. Anyone know where I could get the center caps? I'd really like to get a set that are flat instead of the stock ones w/ the hump in it.

If you find the flat ones I have some nice SS or Z28 centercap decals that would look sweet on those rims.

Steve2000SS had some made for the Boyds he use to have. I have Boyds now. I can give you the guys name if you want. Or you can find a machinist in your area and have him make you some. Just take one of your caps to them and they should be able to make you some. One thing Steve had an extra one made just case one got lost on the road somewhere.

Ask for Darren Dives (owner)

Just tell him you have the boyd wheels and would like to get a set of the caps.. Im not sure what he charges these days but I would guess $150.. could come polished.. they make the wheels look soo much better.. Most boyd wheels use the same cap.. mesure the cap and tell him.. like I said, should be the same..

The price is very good for a custom milled billet part.. I hired him to make these because I just couldnt stand the stock boyd caps <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Thanks for the information! I'd like to see if they could make me some flat centercaps, but if not, just a set without the tacky white Boyd logo will be a great start. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> A set of Mark's SS badges would look pretty killer! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I would think Marks decals would fit even on the current design.. Let us know what happens <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
