► FAQ: Centercaps
just made my own from the electric blockoff things from home depot. painted the black, got red H emblem stickers made, and they look mint. grand total, $18 (including black and clear paint). worked great!
there called Knock Out plugs, electricians use them to plug holes in 4 square boxes where conduit previously existed. - used to be an electrician, though i only know of them coming in 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1.25", 1.5",2"
i mean honestly it looks clean! but i just don't feel confident using KO plugs on my rim, one cause they can pop off unless they have the tabs bent in, secondly because they may end up rattling and making noise over time.
either take off your wheel and bend em in, or honestly, if they rattle after awhile, id do it again in a second. i like the look and total it cost me $13 (4 caps, 4 stickers) id redo it and its alot better than 50 for some oem and i can do any color i want. but if some of you guys like being legit about it, by all means do it up! i just like saving money as much as possible lol
I have 16" slipstreams on my S2000. I need center caps that that extend out of the face of the wheel because the rear axle nut gets in the way of flat faced caps.
Anybody know of center caps that will fit?

I did the Home Depot 2" plugs on my 15" Circuit 10s. Just bent out the tabs a tad and they fit snug. As for the "H" wheel center logos, I bought them from ebay for like $8 bucks shipped. Theyre made from thin aluminum and came with a black background with the silver "H". I stripped the paint off the wheel emblem to expose the aluminum, and polished it. Then applied it on the 2" plugs and this is what I got....

OK, these rims are a bit of a mystery to me, I bought them used. These specific rims that i have on my ep3 now are 15x6. From what I've researched they put 17" ones on the accord type-r, and the 15" ones were offered as an upgrade rim on the usdm integra gsr. Either way I need a center cap or 2 for them, with the red logo, or a place where i can find the red logo insert, any help is appreciated.
i have rota c8's on my civic... 16"... i went to lowe's and bought 1 1/2" knock out plugs in the electrical section, 96 cents a piece, painted them black, paid 5 bucks for 4 stickers of the honda emblem put them on and cleared over them, had about $15 bucks in all of it... just had to bend the tabs out a little on the knock out plug, they fit perfect,
