Aluminum Automotive Wheel Inserts

Whether you are taking a subtle elegant approach or a bold attention-getting one, aluminum is an excellent way to add depth and interest to a wheel insert design.  The Cadillac wheel insert shown here features a unique spin effect which catches the light creating highlights and shadows which radiate from the center of the circular insert.  The Cadillac crest is blind embossed into the aluminum for a subtle effect.

The Cougar emblem uses the same spin effect combined with bright aluminum to create an attractive wheel insert.  Both emblems use a clear topcoat to protect the wheel inserts from the elements.
