Where to find centercap..

hmm I guess this goes here?

Ok so I polished my wheels and the centercaps just dont look right to me. I think I'm gonna get a set of bowtie center caps that were used on the S10's and then polish them and paint the bowtie to match the wheel paint. Can't find them tho.. good prices would be helpful too.. Heres a pic, I believe they made them with a bigger bowtie too or maybee I'm imagining that cause I think it should be bigger...

LOL...too funny. I just grabbed one last night off my friends truck last night to see if they will fit properly...I tried the ones from a 93 Z24 but they dont fit so Im trying those too. His truck is a 2000 S10. Not sure if those were the original wheels.... take the part number stamped on the back and call a dealer

I dunno what year...nor do I have a part number... otherwise I wouldn't have this problem

There on the same 5 spokes that were used on the 91 and 92 models ..I think they started using them on S10's around 94 or so? I tried gmpartsdirect but cant ever find parts on their site.. could only find one beat up on on ebay..

They do in fact fit, really tight but they do fit....the only part number I can see is 15988450. My rims are painted white to match my car and now I will paint these to match too. Should look sweet

Alright. Got all four caps now and they are being sanded and painted tommorow. Ill take my 17" Centerlines off and put the stock rims on and put the center caps in a take a few pictures. Alot of people dont like that Ive color matched the rims to the car but I think it really cleans it up.
