So, after somewhat neglecting our 01 for a while (move, new job, crazy winter, 1 car garage blah blah blah), I finally decided to give her a primping day to show off her new shoes. Washed, clay barred, and waxed her yesterday. The wheels are Pontiac Bonneville wheels, powder-coated gold by a shop on Bloomington, IL. I made the centercaps using a Testors decal printer, patience, and spray paint. I don't post much, but hope y'all like her!

Looks good with the bonnie wheels on there. I would also like a close up of the center caps if possible.

Looking good! Love the rims. I powder coated mine recently as well, gotta love it! The gold looks great with the black.
BTW it doesn't matter how much you post, you're still part of the ACNA family!

What's the diameter of the center cap? I know you said it was a pain to make but I sure would love a set of 4 for my car!!!!

Awehlage, I'm not sure the diameter, I don't think I ever measured. They were the Pontiac center caps that came with the wheels. I removed the aluminum that was painted with the Pontiac logo and then eventually (after much trial and error) got them painted, did the Aurora logos and then sprayed clear coat over them. If you could supply me with caps, I may consider doing a set, but not sure on turn around time or price.
