Edition 1 wheel yellow decal removal
Hello,
Apologize if this thread has been made but I was unable to find this specific topic by searching. Does anyone have any experience with either removing or painting the large yellow part of the edition 1 wheels? i'd like to either remove them totally or leave a thin line of yellow. thanks!!

Answered my own question. Reading Mercedes Benz marketing material on the car which states “yellow painted rim flanges.....”
Love the interior on the car, just not a fan of the decals and painted lips on the wheels.

2015 W205 C63 AMG S Edition One
I have an Edition One with the red strips around my wheels and wanted to do the same thing.
I purchased black part number 72602 3M 1/4 striping tape.

And it covers the strip up nicely and was easy to do

The Stripes are painted on.
Google for a wheel repair place in your area: They can repaint the wheels to omit the stripe.
I've use one in Crofton, MD near me to repair wheels (pot holes, curb rash), change the color, etc.
I just had one repainted to fix where the previous owner had a poorly done paint job during a repair: It looks like a new wheel.
Cost for me was $175 for the wheel, but they had to paint it twice (second time doing the stripe and AMG logo). One color should be less per wheel.
If I was getting two wheels repaired, I probably would have taken all four and had them omit the stripe and leave the red AMG logo.
