My bmw wheel cap arrived (4) pieces. I pretty much ruined one center cap of the mrr , can't seem to pop it out to replace it with the bmw one.
Does any1 know if i have to actually remove the lug nuts and pop the wheel cap off from the other side?
I tried using a screw driver to see if i can just get it out, but it won't budge. ANy tips is gold.

you have to remove the wheels first then pop it from the other side!

Stick the tape on the cap im guessing and then pull it off and hope the cap comes with it, could even superglue something to them if you don't mind ruining them and dont want to take the wheels off.
