Colored Crest Center Caps for Turbo Wheels

My Turbo wheels have the monochrome/black crest center caps and I am looking for the color crested centers to match the polished Turbo wheel. I am able to find plenty of colored crested center caps that will match silver painted wheels but none so far for the polished turbos. Anyone have a solution for this ? Thanks

I must be the only guy that likes the black crest, dealer swapped wheels and I had him change the gold to black.

Check with Eric at BumperPlugs.com

Thanks men, put in a call to Suncoast and they are checking into it for me on the 40th anniversary wheel which had a polished center cap but they are not sure those will match the turbo. In the $ 400 price range which seems insane. Already had spoken with Eric at Bumperplugs and nothing.

Try Ralph Booth, looks like he'll have something that will work or can be manfactured to work:

The 40th anniversary caps will not match the 997TT wheels. The 40th anniversary wheels were chrome looking, and the 997TT wheels are just a highly polished finish.

I like the black crests on mine.

How bout this one:


Click the link above for details. They look flawless in the sun, under a florescent light there is a slight contrast. This is the closest match, we were impressed by the end result.
