Blue Laurel hub inserts
Does anyone have any pics of the the Blue Laurel wheel hub inserts on the 18" AMG wheels?
I'm talking about the first one in the pic.
How do you think that would look? Just curious.

Any pic? What was that you posted? I have them in my 18s and they are just swell. Notice the non-silver paint. Purty, ain't it?

<<I love the blue laurel center caps. >>
Ectually, the blue caps were originally on the SLKs, way back when. I bought a set for the 17" C36 AMGs on my '01 C320. And now they are OE on the Luxury.

The blue ones come standard on most MB cars and trucks now. I'm not too happy with the blue on my black car so I thought about changing them, until I figured out I have to take off all the wheels to pop the old ones out ha ha. I decided to live with the blue, but for the rest of you guys the formymercedes.com site offers all sorts of options, I was partial to the black ones, they are exactly like the blue only in black. You wont find them under w204 options, but the inserts are the same size on every MB wheel, so they all will fit, or so I've been told lol.

Sorry for spamming the board with that link, seems like I keep using it over and over but that guy has some good parts for Benz's.
Yeah I liked the black and laurel myself, there is also a chrome star with a black back ground (top picture on that page), but I thought that would be too offsetting because the wheels aren't black. To follow up on my statement, I had a guy from the service department bring out all their options (the three in your post picture) and he told me that they are all the same size no matter what your wheel size is, so thats what I'm going by. Also if you notice the website doesn't have a size listed, so I assume they are all the same. Crazy thing is the blue laurel caps are still the most expensive, yet they are coming free of charge on new cars?
