Default C5 Z06 Center Cap ?

I want to get my stock Z06 wheels powder coated black and have found a place to get it done. The problem i am facing now is the center caps are plastic and can NOT be powder coated. They will be done a wet black. Anyone know where i can buy Gloss black center caps? or will i have to have them wet painted?
Thanks

I would think that you will have to get them painted. Should not be a big deal.

When you guys say paint them did you guys spray paint them or did you get them profesionally painted to match the powdercoating. I just had my wheels powdercoated satin black and have run into the same dilemma. Also i want to get the lugnut covers painted black. I asked some body shop and they wanted $200 bucks to paint the center caps and lug nut covers. Its sounds like to much therefore I am still lookin around and also seeking advice.
