yha, i gotta pick up 4 of those buick ones for the factory 5 spoke wheels i have in storage for the car.... not that important right now, though, and at almost $50 per it would have to wait anyway

you could also do something like this... main thing you have to check with center caps, are if your's are push through or have screws on the outside of the wheel, and what diamiter the hole for the center cap is.

and these are cheaper, but i like the ones above better

Hey chris, they make centercap inserts that are self adhesive that you can just stick on. I found these but there are other types too.

Those should just stick right onto the insert that is already in your wheel.
For my wheels, I used crossflag inserts and used 2 part epoxy since the center cap on mine was kinda rounded in the center.

Evening all.
Justin, glad you're back home safe and sound.
Todd, I'm SOOOO thankful your Grandpa is out of ICU.
I made the trip back to my parents again today to help with funeral arrangements this afternoon. 3 1/2 hours up and 4 hours back. 500 miles total. GLAD I went. My niece has a big heart, but the brain is a little on the small side. I completely re-wrote the obituary tonight, cuz she had it pretty well messed up. Details wrong, and plenty left out. Arrangements went well........until it came to picking the casket. Dad lost it there, but we got thru it finally. We picked out a nice Cherry wooden one. Dad was VERY happy with the choice, but even MORE happy it was done, and that I was there to help.
I got frustrated with my car today. I changed the oil before I left, and I noticed a mouse nest started on the alternator. It's been parked for 5 weeks. On the way home tonight, I found a problem with the volume button on the stereo. Couldn't drive it over 55 (out of 62 on the volume level) without lights flickering. And the rear view mirror! USELESS!!! Somehow it's all connected to the volume button. GPS fell off the windshield, too. WHUT? SOMEBODY SAY SOMETHING??? LOL!!! Ya, I'm a little more deaf tonight than I was this afternoon. And my ears ringing!!!
Later all.
