I think perhaps you should sit back, take a deep breath and calm down. As someone has already pointed out, it is too late.

And they are available in a chrome plated version from several of the aftermarket vendors too if you need a little shine. I removed the little aluminum fake "carbon fiber" ring from my OEM painted center caps and installed them on some chrome versions. It's only a few minutes to do and really dresses up the appearance. Got the chrome Z07's on mine now.

Ahhhhhhhhh, jeez. That someone is the one that caused this in the first place.

By the way, I'm fine. Thanks for the advice. What is it around here? I've been on other forums for years, and never gotten this over a simple request, with a seemingly simple response.

Re-read the entire thread. I asked for clarification, and it was given. THEN it was pointed out that I already had the answer.
