Chevy rim center cap replacement

Is there an aftermrket replacement for the Chevy Bowtie cap in the center of their stock rims?
I am ploting to remove all Chevy refrences from the exterior.
And/Or make them less obvious.

It appears to me that that pieces 'pops' in, if so, it can just pop back out and something be poped back in to replace it.

Whatcha think?

Why would you want to remove the Chevy logo's?

Common modding practices nowadays, I think it's dumb, But, "To each his own taste, Said the Farmer when he kissed the cow."

LOL, MOooooo!

Why would you want to keep it?

I don't care too much for the badges.

I like the passer by to glance over and wonder what the heck it is factor!

I guess I would want to keep mine 'cause I have been driving Chevy's for 35 years and it sure hasn't bothered me up to this point.

If I ever buy a HHR, ( i will, soon ) I'm repainting it, To flat black, And putting red steelies on it, And Whitewalls. The only time I'd take the badges off a car.

Rat Rodder Wannabe. Will own a rat rod soon, Even if it means ratting out a Bradley GT.

Thanks for reminding me about the rim bowties, I thought I only had the one on the back to get rid of. I don't mind the bowties on the rims though. :)

I do not mind the chevy emblems on the car, quite proud to actually own such a bada#* vehicle manufactured by an american company. That is one of things that make this car so interesting though is that we can all modify and change it to our personal taste. I personally am happy with mine stock, I plan to add a few minor things to it but nothing major. I think all of us on this site have great taste becouse no matter what we do to the HHR we all love the vehicle. I am glad to see everyone change and add things becouse I like to see what you all come up with.
