Default Aftermarket center caps for OE 18" wheels??

Hey guys,

Well I was going to get wheels and tires recently but decided instead to get a new guitar that I had been gassing for so the wheels will have to wait Going to go with BFG AT's for tires. Here's my problem.....

My buddy owns a powder coating shop and does fantastic work and I can get my OE wheels done in black for just the cost of the powder. I'd do the sandblasting and prep on the wheels.
The problem is those damn OE center caps are aluminum and plastic backed. I can't powder coat these since they have the plastic on the back and separating the 2 halves is not an option either. Plus my center caps are junk anyway. They're bent and messed up from being taken off so many times.

So, I am trying to find a metal center caps to powder coat to use with these OE wheels on my 04 FX4 Screw. Any idea what would work? I do NOT want to rattle can these.
