i did and jbspeed. it seems miro changed the size of the center cap and no one seems to have the size that fits anymore. i dont even want to use factory ones because they have that yellowish rubber seal and it would look real bad.

i would try and paint them but it has a laminate cover and i dont want to screw the only ones that fit up. obviously i could order new ones from miro but rockin these wheels with no center cap while i waited would be foolish.

black caliper paint kit isnt getting here on till monday, weekend plans ruined.
Brett, if you want I can send you some Black vinyl and you can cut out your own Bimmian styles roundels. Lmk.

Thanks so much for the offer!! I had bimmian roundels on their and when i washed it those babies went flying off. I want to switch to the real roundels that way it is never an issue EVER again. I really appreciate it though!!

well now i just read that e90 thread and they are 68mm. seems ours are 69mm and stock are 70mm. we are screwed in the middle.

Not to be a cheap ass but that e90 has them 50 shipped for the wheel caps, jbspeed has the entire set (wheel, trunk, hood, steering wheel) shipped for 60 i believe. 10 dollars more for the entire set. from the recent reviews on jbspeed he seems to of cleaned it up.
