    Didn't know where to put this so I took my best guess? On my wheels in the picture has anyone ever popped those emblems out of the center caps? Looking at them they are in there/pushed with three pin like devices in each one? I am either looking to remove them and have the emblems painted, paint the emblems while on the center caps, or remove the emblems all together fill in the holes and repaint the center caps all together?? Any suggestionsIMG_0727.jpg about getting these done would be appreciated? Thanks

    No, they are pushed in there with wire pins of some sort it looks like. I will get a picture.

    They pop out, at least if it's the same setup as the Off Road caps. I used some pliers to wiggle and push the pins out through the caps and a small flathead to push the rest of the way.

    I replaced mine with some stickers off Etsy and will see how they hold up.

    IMG_0743.jpg I was to afraid to push in on the two prongs/pins but I went ahead and did it and the emblem came right off. It will leave of course two holes in the cap so I will go get some paint or plasti dip and do it then stick them back on. I pushed each side and good to go!! YAY!! So these are just spread thingys with a nub on each end to catch it and hold it in place. Off to the Home Depot I go!!:) The emblem is the hat one not the crown. The OEM wheels have the hat and after market have the crown. Ill post a picture under my build when they are complete.
