Faux gas cap overlays?

Looking for a custom overlay for my '13 - not anything "off the rack." I had a few bookmarks to sites years ago but got lost.

I had one custom made by a guy that I found from ebay motors. The following link is the auction of the overlay with a "5.0" on it. The second shows another auction with a running pony logo which I had him use to place on the faux gas cap and replace the "5.0" logo.

oops.....never mind. I just walked out to the garage and looked at it and it's a tri bar pony in relief - will have to investigate this further. This may be more than I care to get into.

I picked up the chrome faux gas cap overlay from CarID. I sanded it to get a brushed aluminum finish, painted the outer ring and center band in two shades of grey, leaving the fake bolts in chrome. For about $25, I think it achieved the look I wanted. Not sure how the billet ones work with the capless fuel seal but this has no effect on that.

On the 10-13 modles you have to grind down the raised part on the faux cap so the overlay lays flush.
Not worth it.
