3D printed wheel centers I think the black will look great after the rim is polished and add a silver logo. Ill print a silver one with black logo and compare..

That's remarkable.
Can you sell a set of (4) 3D center caps for a reasonable price?

I need two screw-on and two push-thru.

The screw-ons are universal size and screw pattern, of course, identical to the ones you've made there. I would need two of those for one side of the car.
The other side needs two push-thru caps. I would have to find and borrow one of those as a pattern.
Of course, as soon as I get all 4 center caps mounted on the car, I'm sure to stumble onto a great deal for a set of 4 chrome or hi-polished aluminum 5-slot rims. i've only been searching for 8yrs now. :roll:

Steve, thanks for showing up at Rick's this morning, and for all the hard labor you voluntarily donated! It was good to meet you and work with you ~and that's a good way to introduce yourself as a new Club member! Everyone appreciated your help.

I borrowed a push-thru center cap from Rick and left it on your truck seat. Use that as a template for the two I need, along with the two screw-on caps for the other side of my car! Thanks again for the offer! I'll get the borrowed cap back to Rick when you're finished with it.

Frank
