Default 08 split spokes center caps???

Hi guys,

I have a set of 08 split spokes painted pearl black(going on a C5) and I need a set of center caps...I have the original caps but they are indented and will be painted with the C6 emblem put back in them.. I want to do a set of plain caps with Corvette jakes does anyone know where I can find caps that dont have the groove for the emblem cut in them. Black would be ideal but I can get them painted


Thanks,
Rob

You're going to have to prep the caps to paint them anyway so use some filler on the "grooves".

Thought of filling them in but my dad is getting the wheels painted for my b day present and he wants the stock ones painted with the emblems and for me to do another seperate set... I dont think he likes the idea of filling them in
