I have a set sitting here right beside me. I'll take a few pics and post them up in a few hours time.

OK I've taken these pics indoors using the flash, except the last pic there was no flash used. The silver circle and the lion are not a chrome finish....they are a matt silver metallic type finish. These pics are very lifelike in this regard.

Kinda like this. http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg156/pingucof/IMG_0230Small.jpg

1 - Buy Holden black caps from Crazy Paul.
2 - Buy chrome nut covers from CP also.

Both are on his site.

3 - Find or cut a circular mask for the center lion. Then just decide what spray paint color you like. I used silver metalflake. Paint all 4. Takes about 10 min. Then 1 or 2 coats of clearcoat.

4 - DONE

the pontiac version allows one to pop out that center piece. That made painting them waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier. I think its odd that the Holden version is different.

Holden 19" Wheelcap is not meant to come apart but can be persuaded to do so.

You can swap out the Pontiac center cap

For the Holden silver cap

Or the newer Holden 2 tone cap. (Note the background is not black...it's a charcoal browny silvery colour)
