2021 G63 22 inch wheel painted center caps

I just received a new G63 yesterday and today I painted the center caps red to match the calipers. I could not have done this if it wasn't for the guidance I received from BOB Z. He has given several people great advice and that is what makes this forum so special. BOB Z. Thank you for all you do on this site.

Outstanding job! I had the stars painted where you did the background but I have black wheels - your way is better for those with the polished wheels!

Make sure your top caps are tight. They cannot be replaced alone without replacing the entire centerpiece and the centerpieces are very expensive!

And when tight they should sit perfectly flush with the rest of the wheel...there a sweet spot you have to hit in order for that to happen.

I put the masking tape over all the holes so it would snap back in properly. I found the trick to getting them installed is to align up the three attach points (three in a row) which aligns them up correctly.
