Default ATTN: Parts Peddler - "Z" Wheel Center Caps?

Now that I have the new "Z" front and rear emblems (replacing the "Nissan" emblems), how about some matching "Z" wheel center caps?

I know these exist, I saw them recently on a Z at home. I don't know where to get them though.

N74DV;

Thanks for the info - how did you attach them? Was it just a tight fit that required no holding mechanism? Will have to check and see if the fender emblem will fit on my STOCK rims.

BTW, recently purchased a DVD player and finally got to see your "Top Secret" DVD - very well done, very professional, with a lot more material than I expected. My wife asked how you made that much smoke from your tires - I told her you just uhh, just....
How did you do it? Water on the track?

we used bleach on the asphalt... bleach burnouts give off alot of nice thick white smoke.

As for my centercaps... I got lucky because the ADR centercaps were 2.8" diameter... 2.8" is the diameter of the side badges too... I machined of the front side of the ADR caps so they were flat and smooth and then used epoxy to glue the Z badge to it.... a perfect fit.
