Opinion on Brabus Center Caps

Hello all. I've been contemplating on swapping out my Sevas center caps for Brabus caps because I don't like the Sevas logo anymore and because my car has the whole Brabus theme going on since I bought it back in 2000. I know that it will look good but my question is do you think it will be too much of a poser move or will it look like I'm just trying to make my car match all around?

Any opinion whether good or bad would be appreciated. Thanks.

Don't do it... If you want a change, how about MB centers instead?

I don't think it would be awful. Matching is matching.

But i personally think the black mercedes center caps w/ the chrome emblem would be cooler.
