Custom Weld center caps

Showing off these bad boys I started making tonight, mainly making these because I want my wheels to be hub centric so the insides going to be slip fit for the hub. Going to polish them up to match the wheels.

Very nice job making those center caps. They look really good with the Weld wheels.

Thanks, I was thinking about putting the corvette emblem in the center but couldn't find any 3D models online.

Once I get them mirror polished they will look even better

interesting, so your going to make the inside of the cap long enough to "slip fit" on the hub?

You would make good money manufacturing these and selling them

The caps you buy from weld get sandwiched between the wheel and the brake rotor, I'm doing the same thing but am making the ID of the cap fit on the hub

the only company I found making something similar was for surpa's and they want like 140 a cap.
