So I was in my garage this weekend and was looking at these lame fake cf Rota centercaps that I still had from my old set of 17in Subzeros...I never used them, (not once)...they were in a baggie hanging up on the wall.

Upon further inspection...I noticed the logo part was removable. I got to thinking and noticed my steering wheel horn button was almost identical in size. So last night I took apart the Momo button and fashioned the Rota logo cap together. I tried for a while to retain the horn but no luck. The Rota cap is not dished/concave like the Momo cap so the spring mechanisim that triggers the horn was not working the way it should. I'm pleased with how it looks for now. But I don't know how long I'll keep it. I plan on getting another horn button someday anyway.
Well enjoy. :P ;)
