Yes. Mine have OEM caps on there. Not the best pic, but you get the idea. You'd need to get them resurfaced to match.

do you have a link for the caps?? i want some!!

just get paint stripper from home depot and it bubbles right off, the place where you get them coated/polished should also strip them chemically.

How heavy are they? What exactly do you mean by "resurfacing"?

dont know how heavy but they arent light...
they had some curb rash and some deep scratches so they had to take some material off. Picture what they do when you turn rotors

What exactly do you mean by "resurfacing" I saw you tried to polish them before the resurfacing and they didnt turn out. What did the shop do to get them that clean? i can understand polishing but they must have stripped them down. I can get the same set of wheels at work for 400 bucks, but i hate the silver look. How in the world did they pull of a polished billet look on those????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
