Wheel center caps

I recently got a set of old ansen slot mags... It only came with two center caps, so I ordered a new set.... As you can see in this picture , the center of the cap is not flat like the original one. Guess it's meant to be hidden behind a stick on emblem (1.5").
Does anyone here have a source for 5 dog ear center caps that are flat in the center? Or suggestions on stick on emblems?

Re: Wheel center caps

I would sand put vinyl over the ones you bought. I got some to go over an aftermarket centercap on my monte carlo ss. Got them from reflectiveconcepts.com
You can email them and get custom ones made as well, they have a liquidome vinyl that is great for this type of application.
They can do about anything, I had custom SS outlined letters with a black background, just have to shoot an email to sales and they will photoshop your design, looking back it was $45 shipped for the 4, and they always send an extra with your order.

Re: Wheel center caps

I never thought of that. Chevrolet did sell just the stickers to go on some of their center caps years for certain models of cars but I don't know if they are reproduced or available now. I don't even remember what model of car they were for but some had the Chevrolet bowtie in them.
