Your opinion on my Gettin centercap delimna, please (3 pics)
I have a delimna as to how I am going to sport my centercaps when I put my wheels on this spring. I don't really like the Zauber logo and was considering powdercoating the centercaps polished or chroming them out OR maybe powder-coating them a little darker (my car is black so it may work) OR this:

Your opinions would be much appreciated! Don't worry, I take criticism very well, so if you think it sux, hammer me with it.
I gotta say, pics simply never do justice to ANYTHING! LOL! The environment is either too dark or too light or the flash is too much or too little or you're not standing at the right angle or SOMETHING! AAARRRRGGGHHHH!!! But there you have it. Let me know what you think. Thanx!

The BMW center cap looks ok. It kind of jumps out at you and distracts you from the wheel. Which I dont think is a good thing. And it doesnt seem to flow too well.. but on the car it might look better. It may grow on me, those are just my first impressions

DGOT - Yeah, the //M valve stem cap is a definite for sure! I love the way it looks! But the CF BMW logo... I am kinda on the same wave-length as mr who. I kinda like it, but it does sorta mess up the flow of the wheel... I think. As he said, might just have to see it on the car to make a final determination.

You know what?.... Honestly if I personally saw wheels like that on the street, the last thinng I would look at is the center cap... the first thing I would look at is that nice lip . On another note as funky as then center cap would be (as long as it's not a b-ball shaped thing) those wheels still would look killer.. I like that BMW center cap personally.

I'm Liking 'em
MS-
They work for me. I think they're different (than stock blue/white) and against the black paint, they should look tight.

PS-great choice of wheel-smoking design-when is the install and pics? What type of BMW, BTW??

Love the wheels, but I think the BMW caps (both) are distracting. The M valve cover is a very cool little touch, though.
I wonder how hard it would be to get something custom made? Maybe the the same design you have there, but do them BMW and roundel in chrome and the surrounding area to match the silver of the wheels as best possible. It'd probably be a very discrete look.
