Question for anybody?

How about centercap decals. I just need the 50mm (approx 2") wide decal for the center of a wheelcap. You know, black with a silver/chrome "L" logo...

Or will the above noted wheelcap fit most aftermarket wheels? The OEM wheelcap on the 18" wheels for the IS did not fit my aftermarket wheels...

Actually, the OEM wheelcap was significantly larger, by about half an inch in diameter. It would have never fit.

It definately needed a different sized cap.

That's how stock Lexus centercaps are.

Nice work, they look OEM.
