Folks,

My old chrome center caps on my stock 17" TL-s chrome wheels were looking tired, plus I lost one and got a replacement minus the "A" logo black vinyl sticker...nasty!!

So, I got the new chrome wheel center caps that come on the new chrome option RL's. It's a perfect fit and very tight fitting and tight looking!! Here are my install pics:

Here is my before chrome cap



Here is the packaging for the new cap. Comes with the cap, the plastic chrome A logo and two mini rivets that hold it to the cap. The red is just a film that covers the adhesive on the back outer edge of the emblem, but the holes make it impossible to put on crooked. I just made sure the cap was clean using alchohol before putting it the holes and pressing for a seal on the edges. As you can see, here are the part numbers. I got all 4 for $64 including tax. $15 each at the local Acura dealer.




Here is the cap assembled



Here is the back of the cap. All I did was put the emblem in the holes and pushed the rivets on to the exposed posts. I used a flat head screwdriver to push them nice and snug to the cap. Very cool design!



Here is the final product on my car. I think it is a classy look and no more black vinyl stickers. For you folks with RonJon or chrome Acura wheels, you may want to look into these. They may work for other aftermarket wheels as well. I can assure you, these will absolutely fit on the 2nd Gen TL Type S wheels.

nice, they sell em on ebay also, all the TL Rims center cap is the same size, i got a set for 30 bucks off dere

Damn, I checked there on Ebay but I guess not hard enough cause I didn't see these listed anywhere, but it was a while back. These have been on backorder for well over a month, just got em today...$30 is a great deal that you got!. I usually bargain shop, but for some reason not this time..oh well, it's all good.

jonjacob

when searching, just type "tsx center caps" or "Acura center caps"

My dealer told me these wouldnt fit..dumb asses

aaronnn

hahahah! dealers dont know shit!

all current honda rims ranging from 16"-18" all have same diameter center caps. of course they all fit and interchangable!


those chrome centercaps definitly look MUCH better than the tired black sticker looking ones

Is the background of the new cap chrome or the factory finish? I can't tell from the pics.

Those look great! I think the look much better on the wheel than the old ones.

is there anyway you can give me the diameter? I'm looking for some different caps for my aftermarket rims and these would look hot. what is the cost from the dealer?

Nice caps. Chromies...ooh

Yo, I just took off the 19's and put my 17" OEM chromies back on. I polished them up with "Wheel Wax" to fight the brake dust. The wheels never looked so good and shiny

The roads here in CO are still pretty tore up from this crazy ass winter, so before I damage them any further, they are cleaned and boxed up until we move to Atlanta in a few months. 35 series tires make for a horrible ride, at least here on our streets. I forgot how nice my car rides with 17's

I think we may be the only ones with OEM chromies..lets build a clubhouse LOL

CJITTY

The background is kind of a shiny polish, so it's "bling"ier than the stock cap.

CJITTY

Damn, Blazin? Not sure why. These are "stock" caps, I thought RonJon's were designed to allow for keeping the factory caps? They don't click in easy, you gotta square it up and tap it in pretty hard. Mine didn't seem like they fit at first, but they clicked in!

CJITTY

These should fit, I can't see why not?

frantinez63

Thanks!

ronjon center caps are same size as integra ones

dakey

Hey CJITTY, found your thread. My wheels are not chrome but found some replacements on ebay. Thanks.

SSMTL01

CJITTY- is there any possible way you could measure the diameter of the caps for me?
