Default Question on Z06 center caps???

Hey guys,
I have a set of AFS high polish 18by 9.5 wheels. The center caps i got are chrome, so they dont match. I can get factory polished ones but they will have the colored emblem on them and they are bout $120 for a set my cost, i work at a dealership. Anybody know where i can get some plain high polished center caps or how can i remove the flags off the factory ones.
thx rob

dont the rims have a clear coat on them? I dont know, i got them and put them in storage since i dont have tires. If they dont have a clear coat yeah then i can polish them. But they are AFS wheels so i believe they are clear coated so i cant polish them. Any info on where i can find polished center caps that are plain would be awesome!!!!!!!
peace rob
