I just put a set of gunmetal 10-spokes on my '00 Z28. I like the look they give the car.

Thanks for noticing.
You may have forced me to polish mine....even though I told myself I'd never do it again. I've been through that once, but atleast they were SS 5 spokes. Which center is that??

Looks amazing, might be a winter project for me!

^You mean center cap?? Its the '02 35th anniversary if that's what you're asking.

Thanks. If you polish then it may also be worth your time to powder-clear them as well for added protection.

pretty much have to find them used. to my knowledge no one makes a replica for these. I would buy a set of anniversary 10 spokes in a 18" in a heart beat if oewheels would just do it. I guess fir me the good news is I have 2 set of ss 10 spokes coming to me so after literally years of wanting some I will finally be able to post up in here.

Wow....look what happens when you are gone for a while. Thanks. If you want to make your painted set like that or similar you'd have to strip them and polish them to a clear shine, and then powderclear them. For the faces, (if you didn't want to take the risk with the anniversary set) you'd have to see if a skilled polisher could make either a machined or brushed pattern for you. Then what's left is the centercap, either use chrome blanks from slp or see about getting the anniversary caps (the pattern will need to match though), or thru some type of magic see whether a chrome paint or metallic paint exists....or possibly have the caps plated....dunno.

Thanks again for the notice!
