Hey guys, I have a set of Eagle 077 wheels on my car. I think they look really nice polished up and I don't have a problem at all with them. Any 5 spoke wheel looks good. Anyway, I think they would look a whole lot better with the EAGLE off of the center caps. I checked out the company's website, I can't find no way of contacting them. They do sell replacement caps, but none that are completely shaved. So i'm thinking of ordering a set of replacement caps and attempting to do this myself, if it is at all possible. After looking at them for a while. They appear to be engraved a little bit and it looks like they were painted black in the engraved part and then sealed with something. I may be wrong, I have no clue. I'm not sure how much I can shave off before there is nothing left. But i'm thinking maybee I can sand them down with some really really heavy grit sand paper, at least until I reach the engraved part and start taking it down. After then I will bump up the sand paper until I reach a really fine stage until I can polish them back. I wouldn't mind either having the EAGLe still on there, just not black, so you wouldn't beable to notice it. Do you guys think it is possible to do this?
