OK so I'm back in the center cap designing mood. We have a small machine shop at work & I found some aluminum tubing to fit my project. I'm fabricating a spacer to fit the hub center & then attach a std grease cap. I'm working on the fronts now & hope to do a set of rear caps too. I'm having to make everything a 'press-fit' so tommorrow is my first attempt at putting it all together. More pics to come.

 

Sounds cool, can't wait to see what they look like!

 

I dry fit the caps this morning & it seems like they stick out a little too much. It's back to the lathe to chop off another 1/2" & try again.

 

Here's the caps after a final cut-down:

Finally installed

Nice Work ! How about either anodizing or powder coating the new piece Black ?

Looking Good,

 

Thanks DLV. I'm OK with the little bit of silver to offset the black. That part of the project is complete. On the the rear wheels! I may go back over them all later & rework/paint or ? Gold anodized would look trick!
I cleaned up the wheels tonight:

And the close-up:

 

good job, Looks great

 

I want some

 

You may have to make some more of those, looks great.

What might also look nice would be to add red pinstripe on the rim like halfpanel08 did when he first got his HHR.

 

How about trim rings? That would complete the look.
