I'm considering buying a set of black Enkei RPF1 wheels from Tirerack. They of course do not come with centercaps and the centercaps that are available for them are not black and not really good looking to me. Does anybody know of any alternatives to using the available ones? Is it ok to run without centercaps? Can I just put a black vinyl decal over the area? Can another centercap be modified to work (such as this one? http://www.minicarparts.net/Parts/36_13_1_171_069.cfm)

 

I have a set of stock MINI center caps if you think they'll fit your new wheels (or can be modified to do so). PM me and it's yours for the cost of shipping.

just paint your wheel hub matte black using engine enamel paint. RPF1's
are wheels that looks kinda werd with center caps imho.

 

Does the hub actually stick out past the surface of the wheel? It's hard to tell in that picture.

 

no it does not. btw, that's my FitS's hub, but my MCS's wheel hubs are
also painted and the hub did not stick out.

i dont have any more close ups of my SSR comps that i use to run long time ago.

 

Aesthethic Creations has many different types of center cap decals available. They can also make custom ones as well.

Nice clean calipers there, kenchan.

 

Yeah - I know some other folks who have had AC make custom domed center cap decals to fit their aftermarket wheel center caps - so you still use the caps for your wheels, but stick these on top and it looks like a full custom cap...

I've also ground down a set of JCW badges to fit aftermarket centercaps...

 

just an idea here are some i had made

sorry to post on such an old thread, but what did you end up doing for the center cap?

 

Here is what I did for $4.00 vs $100 for Enkei center caps. Once I bent the tabs out, they snapped in place and need to be pryed out.

 

Here is what I plan to do with a little sanding and painting.
Honda part no. is 44732-S9A-A000
Should be about $20 shipped on ebay for all four.

 

Looks good.
