If you've got the OEM centre caps from 06 then the Honda decal is on a foil cover that goes over the whole cap. The foil can be prised off easily around its edges revealing the plastic cap underneath. Spray the cap whatever colour you want and stick a new decal on top. You can spray a clear coat on top of the decal if you wish. Decals are readily available on that well known auction site.

When I do mine again I'll go the aluminium tape route - https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/104...eel-cap-refurb

Very easy to take it out. Use a plastic prying tool though to avoid scratching it..

I liked the way you had avoided to advertise the known auction site..! hehe

I had a spare set and so (via that sale site) picked up a set of 75mm stick on badges for them, think they look ok with the darker wheels?
