Default 350z wheel question

Can the center caps on the 350z wheels be switched out with the lexus ones or are they different sizes?

There might be a Lexus cap that fits. But it'll be easier just to have some Lexus stickers made. You might even find them on Ebay.. GL

Just bought Black Chrome caps with silver Lexus emblem on them from this company:

Call them, they can find your cap in whatever color you want with whichever emblem.

Alot, but if you just want plain chrome or silver I'm sure it would be cheaper.

22$ a Cap.

The 19" Rays G35 rims, and the 5 Spoke 18" Z Rims have alot of space for a BBK. Not sure about the other styles.

Great thread. I have those same 350Z wheels on my SC400 and thought those centercaps would fit but wasn't sure. Those look identical to the ones they use on the IS250 wheels.
