1. Work hasn't manufactured those wheels since the late 80's, early 90's. Its extremely unlikely that they'll have any backstock of them.

2. Most Work center caps are brand-specific, which typically means that you can't mount a different manufacturer's center cap. Secondly, a wheel collector/enthusiast typically wants to replace what was there with a proper replacement... not a knock-off/alternate.

I am going to say that you can probably have those caps reproduced in billet aluminum but its going to be very expensive and as far as the center of the caps go you can have those duplicated in vinyl and stick it to the billet cap.I think that would be the second best solution to finding original caps.
