Custom C5 Y2k centercaps? Are there any companies out there that make custom centercaps for C5 rims? I'm looking to get something a little different for my deep dishes. The Corvette emblem isn't really working for me, especially now that they're on a T/A. If anyone has any info, it'd be really appreciated.
I will be making some custom aluminum ones for my polished C5 deep dish wheels in a few months when I get some free time at my shop. The centers provided will work for now but I don't want the corvette emblem and want them polished to match the rest of the wheel. I'm going to try a few different styles, some with the flat face and others with a small bulge in the center (kind of like CCW centers) until I find exactly what I want. I am also thinking about engraving the Pontiac arrow head or the Pontiac lettering on them also, but will probably try them blank first.

What type of custom work do you want to do with them?
I plan on just sanding mine a little bit, then filling in the low portions, then repainting them black. I like simple and I'm sticking with it. You might have a bit of an issue finding the right color silver in your case.
