In my continuing quest to stomp out GM ugliness on my 2010 Tahoe, I've decided it's time to deal with this minor annoyance, and that's the gold Chevrolet emblem on the center wheel caps.

Suggestions? This ought to be an easy fix. So please throw out your ideas. :)

TBSS's with black (vinyl) bowties (and black lug nuts) I had the black and silver theme for the SS

Find some vinyl in the same color as your truck

Hmmm, when you say vinyl, I think this

Or this

But you probably mean something else. Could you explain please?

. . . another option is to get a blank center cap :)

That's the route I just went a few minutes ago. No bowtie is my preference, as I'm into the blend-it-together look rather than the contrast look. Those blank center caps do not appear to be an easy item to find. I made my purchase from Direct Performance Wheels ("direct" is the name used on eBay) and bought four knock-off plain polished aluminum wheel caps for OEM 20" wheels. Of course the polished aluminum look is really plastic, because GM took the cheap route, and the knock-offs knocked off GM's cheapness. :D


Thanks for the replies! I'll post an update when I receive the items as far as fit and finish. :)
