Hi, I just got some Imola wheels, coming from Daytonas.  The Daytonas have a center cap that covers the lugs, but the Imolas don't.  My lugs are gold (zinc) colored but it looks like cars with Imolas have black caps.  Is this just a bolt cover?
 
On a related note, anyone know where I can get BMW logo center caps for the new wheels Big%20smile

If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

btw I LOVE the way Blue handles now with the 15s.  May have already said this, but I lost about 20lbs per corner, and you can definately feel the difference.  Kinda strange not having my wheel well all filled up with fat rubber.. but the drive is sooo much better..
