Here they are refinished with the cap. Taken with a webcam so the quality may be the sh*ts.

Got the caps but as they only ship UPS - shipping, tax and customs fees cost me nearly $50 just for the caps to get here. And, as I was not sure on how they clipped in I had to guess the size I needed and went one size to large Now I have to return them to get a smaller size. They are nice though and different then other ones I have seen. These are a chrome hex shap with black centre with a 3d logo in the centre that reads "PANASPORT"
Will post pics later.

Called today. I spoke with Jim at Overseas Auto but he was having some difficulty tracking some down.
I was eventually referred to:
Formula Mag, Inc., Torrance, California, at 310-373-0071. They answered the phone as 'Panasport'
$15 per cap. Before you call measure the inside diameter of the centre hols as they need that when ordering them. They also wanted to know how much the grease cap stuck out to see if we went with an 18mm cap or 45mm cap. Seeing ours is sunk in pretty deep I went with the 18mm cap and 70 mm size centre hole (roughly 2 5/8").
They ship through UPS. All four were in stock. I will let you know how they fit Cheviots
Anyone know of the weight of a Panasport. Curious as to how much heavier the Cheviots are

I will let you know the cost when I call

About how much do they run? I called panasport directly and they were around $20 or so a piece plus shipping.

Jim, at Oversea's auto... give him the diameter and he can order them for ya.. pretty cheap (I bought new ones for Twyla and Mo's cars) He can get them in chrome with the blue logo or chrome with the black logo..

Anyone know where the best place is to buy a set of these? I almost have my wheels finished but none have come up on Ebay.
Also, is there a difference in the diameter of the centre holes btw wheels or are they all the same? The reason I ask is it looks as though my 'Panasports' are actually knockoffs and are Cheviots but I want to fit the Panasport centre caps.
