well i was. i also didn't want to pay 60 to 100 bucks for a new set. i would rather spend that money elsewhere unless i was restoring the car. here is what i did. i went to the local hardware store and bought a sheet of aluminum for about 10 bucks. measured the circle, cut them out of the aluminum and stuck them in with rtv to hold them on. it looks sooo much better. about 70 to 80% as good as new ones......but for less than 10 bucks and i have plenty left to do it again and again or use it for other things.

 

well, that sounds like a really good mod if i were missing my center caps, but as of yet i am not. mine are just cracked and gettin ugly. good mod though, Steven! post pics if ya can.

here you go.

 

hey, that does look sharp!

i may just do that as it attracts less looks then do my beat-up original centers!

thanks for the tip man!!

It would be really simple to polish those home grown caps and nobody would be the wiser.

 

yea polishing them would be easy. it only took alittle while to do all of them..a polish and shot of clearcoat would be very easy.

 

Don't be such a cheap bastard, respect the marque.
Home made usually looks home made and cheap.

 

that doesn't look bad at all. you need to quit criticizing other people's work, as you haven't been here long enough to do that kind of bulls*it. if you saw this guy's IROC you would quickly shut your mouth about "respecting the marque" and all that other crap. hell, you act like he freakin put a Honda symbol on his IROC. you need to grow up and quit making childish remarks to gain post count. it is a very nice solution to an unsightly problem that doesn't cost an arm and a leg like the replacements do. so in short, say something nice and helpful or shut the hell up.
