I know you can buy replacements and new stickons, so I thought I would share my inexpensive, simple resolution. As I cut vinyl as a hobby, I have plenty of stock. I basically cut squares about an 1” bigger that round centerpiece, applied from inside out and worked it into the crevice with a squeegee and trimmed off excess.
 
Damn, I just did my rear side reflectors last night...didn't think about doing this! Next on my list! Thanks. (I cut vinyl on the side too, plenty of scraps leftover that are the perfect size to do this.)
 
Don't know what is your financial situation is but the overlays I bought were just 20.00 bucks. Ive had them on for at least 2 months and their hanging there nicely. I guess 20 bucks is 20 bucks but Im just saying. You know what Im saying?o_O

Having them blacked out, in my opinion, makes those lovely wheels look like they are instead plastic hubcaps from WalMart..

Wonder if it was a matte black, if it would have drawn less attention to the fact that there is no logo there. Either way, looks good.
 
I think you gotta have something on the center piece or...in my opinion, that nobody asked for...it just doesn't look right. It kinda looks like no name wheels from XYZ mart on the side of the road. Not that they are bad places to get no name wheels, but I'm just saying.

I got the same design, mine in the black and silver and love them! :thumbup:
 
I blacked out the entire removable center piece looks kinda cool
 
Not saying they are the only way to be done, I can do them in any color, carbon fiber, reflective, etc. Money isn’t the issue. I don’t care for the way the overlays stick out. If they get marred or I get bored with what’s on the wheel, just switch it out!

That looks much more finish then the plain covers. My thoughts in modding is that it shouldn't look force or desperate to cover by all means necessary. Those plains overlay just look blahh. In my opinion it would make the car look cheap.
 
i Like the carbon fiber look. If you don’t like then just keep walking!
 
Don't get me wrong, glad you shared it! Not my taste but at least different. I also work with vinyl (amongst other things)...
