Default Wheel Cap Decals

Looking for wheel cap decals. Mine are peeling off inside corvette logo on wheel caps. I can’t find any for inside the logo, only outside. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Pics here would help. But, you might want to check with a sign shop and see what they can do for you.

If they're peeling but still in good condition, just use a little contact cement. I went through that about six months ago and they're still holding.

Most if not all, can be taken apart. If so, like mine from my St'ray, it allows any number of new options for center cap/designs of various sizes and configurations.

You might try this - VetteStripes.com - Where Stripes Win Trophies!

I've bought from them in the past and been pleased.

Yeah I lost one of mine too and noticed the other ones were lifting off. GM can’t seem to figure our adhesives. Fortunately, this is not as expensive as the glue problem in the 3LT dash. I found a using a fine point red sharpie was good enough to no longer notice it missing. That and I pulled off the lifting ones so I could properly super glue them backpacks in place. But in the end I just replaced them with Jake corvette racing caps.

Thanks for the responses gentlemen. I ended up gluing them back but will look into vette stripes like CatCity posted. Also, I can find center caps but can’t find the chrome ones that I need. Ideas?

I can find the flat chrome ones with just a sticker on them on eBay and Amazon but continue to look up and not find chrome with the embossed C7 flag on them. Black, like Random Dan pictured are all over the place.

Place a want to buy ad in the C7 parts section of this forum. Given the number of people who upgrade their wheels and don’t reuse the center caps, you are almost guaranteed to find a set. Good luck!

I find it very odd that the op has chrome background oem caps. I have the chrome wheels on my 2019 GS and it has the gray background caps. If they didn't put all chrome caps on my car I don't know how they can be anywhere else.

I just remembered I sold a set of oem chrome caps here 2 years ago and they have a gray background. I am going to go out on limb here and say the op does not have oem caps if they are chrome and he does have a gray background if they are oem.

Watch and see the op is going to come back with "I thought they were chrome but upon looking they are gray". There is no such thing as all oem chrome C7 center caps. This is a wild goose chase.
