Default Corvette wheel decal?

In my search to get rid of these stupid center caps on the OE wagon wheels, I think I've found a round black center cap that would work.

But I would prefer instead of smooth black cap to out a C5 decal on cap. Anyone know of a quality one or one they used that worked out well?

I see a few options online, but would rather not waste $30-40 several times to find a decent one.

I bought some nice c5 decals from here...I dont know if they have a picture of the c5 one but it was good quality and looks really nice. I will try to take a pic today to show you. Just call them and ask for the price.

Have you considered having a vinyl decal made or even having the caps painted? I did that with mine and am very pleased with the result.

I had a local sign shop make some custom decals for my wheel center caps. Price was very reasonable. They look just like the front or rear emblems on the '03 cars.
