I just picked up a set of used RPF1's without center-caps, and am going to get them powder-coated. I want a flush-sitting center-cap that is metal so it can be powder-coated to match. I have searched around, and the nicest thing I've seen so far is this:

^Obviously their color matching was off, but I'm sure if I get the wheels and caps powdercoated simultaneously it should turn out nice.

The Honda center caps fit, but plastic I can't powder coat, so that's not an option.

Also, was looking at this DIY mod, not sure if I like how it pokes out just like the RPF1 center-caps though, and not sure if it's "plastic chrome" or real metal chrome that can be powdercoated...

Lastly, I came upon these centercaps:

I tested my GTC01 centercap size, which is 75mm center bore, and it's just slightly too big (besides the fact that it screws in instead of clips in), the RPF1's are 73mm center bore size. Do you think a "clip-in" center cap of 71.6mm or 75mm would fit the RPF1's? Are they metal/ powder-coatable?

Anyone have experience with these last center caps, although they're pricey...

Any other good ideas? Some more metal 73mm center bore center caps out there?

I know someone posted a Civic plastic center cap can be used. I like the first setup. Different.
