FINALLY!!!!
I can't tell you how many times I have swiped a pic of these wheels on some one's car and added this to them in photoshop. This changes the whole look of the wheel and for the better. Great job!!

These aluminum center caps I built will bolt to my wheels from the back side, I did this because it was easier than designing a clip and I only planned on making one set of these. If I were to make these in volume I would make them snap in like the original ones did.
I will do some looking to incorporate a spring steel clip in these so they would snap in and see what I can do for a short production run.
Thanks again for all the compliments!

Very nice! I am actually working on the same thing right now for a class project. I have the centercap and fixtures modeled in Mastercam, all I have left is to cut it out.
Yours turned out great though.![Thumb](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/thumb.gif)
Also, for any Camaro owners that would rather have a bowtie or "SS" on their caps instead of the vette flags, 10 spoke center caps work also. I have the red bowtie 10 spoke caps on my wheels![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

Jakson, That is a big project to take on in shop class (just thinking back to the little shop projects I did in school). Not sure what you have for previous machining skill but should be a great learning project for sure. Hope yours turn out well! Be sure to post up pics when your done.

I was kidding anyway, but if you get the time you could probably make some dollars selling these.
