I am glad that you posted this thread. I am in the same situation. I wanted to put some cool center caps on my 19 AMG multi-spoke rims and I didn't really want the usual MB symbol.
I like the AMG affalterbach center caps but I wasn't sure it would look good with these rims and on a iridium silver car. What do people think?

I ended up with AMG center caps that were brushed and polished but they seem kind of boring to me now.

Thanks. I think I am going to go with these since the black sorta goes well with the multi-spokes since the inners parts of the spokes are dark grey.

Im going to take a shot and see...I agree with most that it might be too much on a blck car but you never know til you try. Thinking back to my M3, the BMW caps had the 2 bright blue patterns and I think it looked great, so maybe it will work.
If I dont like it Ill just use my brushed AMG caps and sell these.
Question though - Is the only way to install the center-cap by taking the entire wheel off?

if you don't take the wheel off, you risk messing up the caps and/or the wheel. I wouldn't do it without taking them off......i've tried, and nicked my old wheels.
