Question do they make these in BLUE? My kingdom if they do

Was at my local auto shop and this was in the parking lot. Ahh reminds me of my first '79 TA.
Notice the wheel caps? do they make these with a "blue" bird? All i can seem to find is gold or red. I could have sworn I once upon a time seen them in blue.
if not a GM product, does anyone know of a place that makes them after market? its for a project I want to work on.

thanks

I do not believe Pontiac did a center cap with a blue bird. They did blue accented snowflake wheels for the late 70's Sky Birds, but those had the red birds on the caps, if memory serves. You might be able to find someone that does graphics to custom make what you want, but I personally wouldn't have any suggestions for that. I am in a similar boat, as I am thinking about gold accented snowflakes for my 77 Grand Prix, but I am trying to find something other than a center cap with a bird.

I was going to suggest you go with a vinyl decal. It's not to expensive. Once you put it on hit the cap with a coat of clear and it'll protect the decal and also give it a more polished look.

I was thinking of the Pontiac arrowhead/dart in either red or gold, or even the mid to late 70s script GP. That would be great if I could get those links.
