Yes please. But I got hypersilver on order with you, wonder how it will look with it? May be totally off, but I'd be interested.

I will take pictures of the caps with the hyper silver. We just try to best match the OEM WEDS cap color, thought it would be neutral. Would it be better to just make them in black and silver? They would stand out more, but not match anything.

Thank you for the idea, we did make some changes to the design. I hope we improved it.

Black might work fine with DGM too, as its dark. Silver caps seem to match Titanium color well, based on pics in this thread.
Personally, black should work for me too, because the lugs I got, McGard, are black too. I guess it depends what the interest is.

I'd prefer black or light gunmetal, like the TC-105n caps. Black goes with just about anything, too.

The color on our cap is very close to the WEDS light gunmetal, we tried to get as close as we could to it. We picked that color because it was a factory color.

What do you guys think?
Any chance of you making some for the S2000 hub sizes?

Definitely in for a set - black, or Bronze 65MM OD if that's still the offer.

I need a pair for the rear. Fronts don't need it cause no axle.
