Stock rims: center caps?
Anyone know where I can get center caps for the '92 SC4 stock 10 spoke rims? Mine are pretty faded. Also, are there different options for these? I'd like to get the normal grey background with a chrome L if they have 'em.

I had the same problem with the center caps on my 93SC300. You can buy new center caps but they will not be painted. I just took the old ones:
1. Removed the emblems by removing the glue on the 3 or 4 pins on the inside.
2. Wet sanded them with 800 grit paper.
3. Spray paint with a can of Dupli.Color GM340 Silver paint from your local Wal Mart.
4. Reinstall the emblems. I used clear RTV on the backside just to make sure that they stay on.
The paint is a nice match with the original wheel color.
