Is the Chevy bowtie just a decal? Centercaps look better silver, but those bowties gotta go!

Leave the caps silver, but lose the bowtie. Where did you get those I really like them.

Don't paint the centercaps black. Those looked good on NIck's car, but even better on yours. Those caps are the ones for the 35th LE wheels.
Get a decal with a Pontiac logo on it or something. They make vinyl that looks like stainless steel so it should be a near perfect match.

niiiice. Looks good on your car. That's the only reason I didnt jump on the wagon on buying those set because of the offset of the rear wheels. That and its not wide enough on the back.

They look good. The black part of the spoke really makes the look come together!

thanks for all the comments guys. I don't really know where to get the right center caps. I would like just plain ones actually, so if anyone has any for sale........... they are different, I've never seen em before I bought em.

I wish I could have found the standard flat caps they came with!! The 35th caps match a lot better (machined face with black on the edges). If you can find a phoenix decal that will cover the chevrolet logo you will be golden. If you decide to paint the caps use some cheapos from some 10 spokes to see if you like them. The caps that are in those wheels cost over $20 a piece from GM!!!


Looks good!!!
My new wheels just came in!!

Heres the logos you need Jesse.

Read the description it says you have the option for disks to cover the old logo as well.
