I'm not worried about any kind of fender work. My car is getting repainted at the end of the summer.

I'm trying to find black center caps, but with what your looking for, I'd look to see if the flat volk center cap fits.

I believe the center caps off the 19's and the NT03's (same cap) will work in the 18 inch RPF1, but you will need to drill and tap the mount holes in the wheel. That would give you the cleanist cap available.

i thought you can't get those caps unless you buy the 19s? or can you buy those separately?
plus, i would no way in hell drill holes for just center caps.

Does Enkei make flat caps w/ no writing? No. The 19" wheels come with the only "flat" cap available. 16"-18" wheels get the god awful looking ones
I'm sure sure someone has rigged something up by now.

Don't know, you would need to call and ask. The 5 or 6 holes that would need to be drilled are only 1 to 2mm in the lip of where the center cap goes, would not effect the structure of the wheel at all.

It's been a while since I had my 18" RPF1s but didn't the wheel bolt stick out past the center of the wheel thus not allowing a flat type cap?
Edit (best example of what I am talking about):

I noticed that in the rear. I don't mind no center caps, but would like something.
Chris
Not sure why I didn't buy these to begin with. Such a great lookin rim and good price.

From what I can see they are flat caps with the Z fender emblem. I think.

They look like the emblems that come on the fenders. I do have two extras! Just need to find two more and tack them on.
