Every 1LE Trans Am I've ever seen had the "WS6" wheel cap medallions.... usually with Silver lettering.

The road test I have of a 1991 1LE T/A shows the silver WS6 caps used with charcoal diamond-spoke rims on a Blue car.

It stands to reason that any 1LE T/As that had the gold diamond-spoke wheels would use the gold WS6 caps.... just like the GTAs and TTAs.

I was only quoting from my own experiences with these cars.... which is quite limited. The center cap logo color would naturally be dictated by the color of wheel installed on the car.
