Over on Nasty Z28 there is a guy who had the correct raised bowtie center medallions for $100/set that can be used to replace the later version chevrolet switched to. If you find complete NOS correct Centercaps last I checked they were $250 each or more, last time I bought NOS centers they were $600 a set... 10 years ago, here are some photos.

This guy:

sometimes has correct centers without the emblem, but he doesn't have any listed at the moment. I have NOT purchased any from him, but they look good from his listings.

And as afar as the correct lug nuts, good luck! They are rare as hens teeth and go for about 2 grand a set when you find them.

They are very close to these:
https://www.scottfullerreproductions...29/8316263.htm
but sized for 7/16 studs. I have a die designed for re-sizing them, but just haven't had time to pursue it, if anybodies interested. You would have to buy a set of covers from Scott prior to the coining op and then run them through the re-draw die and then coin over standard lug nuts.

I figure with the cost of the cores from Scott Fuller at 475 and the tooling and time you would be selling a set for 650 or so and thats if you build to tool yourself at cost. How many folks would be interested at this price point?

One thing in particular for right now is strangely enough the front valance Camaro emblem. There was a transition after 04B and before 05A to one that didn't have a slot around the outer edge. Is this one a known original?

$650 a set is not a bad number considering what a set of NOS ones trade for...
