if you take the centercap off, you can open it up by prying at the sides, then you could flip the bmw emblem around....then put it back together and it will look like plain silver centercaps...

I hate oem wheels from another brand mix-matched. At least these look nice and will be better once you cover that BMW emblem.

never saw them at the wheel shops maybe ebay?

no, not talking about cutting them out...the center cap is three pieces....just pry out the outer ring, flip the little disc that has the bmw logo on it, and there you go....
