If you have the chrome 17's swoopie rims, like I have on my car, how is the center cap assembled?. I know the cap is chrome, but the centre portion has a hex portion that sticks out...and it has a Pontiac badge in it. Its that a decal or a metal plate or what?

I got somethin up my sleeve and curious minds wish to know 8)

Bump? :oops:

Now that U mentioned it, what are you doing for center caps?

Jim W 03-24-2005 12:05 PM

Buyin 2001 chrome caps, and doing somethiing about the little Pontiac badge in the centre of the hex.

Thats why I wanted to know if its a metal plate (ie chromed underneath) or if its a decal, or painted...ya know.

did i not tell you to get the 01+ swoopie caps in the first place??? you could just do the olds logo where the pontiac logo is

Yes, but they werent available, they dont pop up all that often and the dealer list price is like $80 per cap :shock:

Ebay is my only chance, and there are some up now.

Snag them! I'm sure you can figure something out, and if nothing else, sell them back on ebay for a profit...
