Wheel Center cap emblems
I have new chrome wheels and I’m looking for center cap emblems. I’d like domed but I can’t find many. Thought I saw them on RPI but there’s no link to order them. Anyone have a source?

I just ordered a set from Top flight for my new center caps. Not the domed type just the decal. What I didn't like is that on the oem wheels the chrome of the cap shown thru the center. With top flight it is white. They also have a pronounced edge on the that I can see getting caught by a wheel brush. I have since ordered another set from Corvette garage. They should be here by Monday.
The corvette garage type looks more like a decal with backing paper. Not just a stick on like TF

I read where the guy making the dome decals is not in production and not sure to return.
Not sure of the durability for outside use. I know they use them for emblems but wheels face much harsher conditions.
the decal like would be more durable.

I had that concern also. Ordered the set from Corvette Garage.

I think you made the right choice. The domed decals are expensive and hard to find. I also agree that they would likely not have held up well to use on the wheels.
