removing wheel caps?

[ttocs]

do you just pry them off or is there some other method? I was looking at mine and notice that they just appear to be a piece of clear plastic that is painted on the other side. I am considering sanding/buffing the paint off and using my vinyl cutter to help me paint a custom logo on it. Anyone else ever tried this? I briefly tried to pry one out but I didn't work too hard as I didn't want to damage the plastic cap or the pain on the wheel,

What type of wheel? I have bullets and i always remove the tire and punch em out from the inside.

they are bullit wheels as well. Do they need to be removed to take the center cap off safely of is there another way?

On my old R's, I noticed 1 center cap was coming apart, I pried it out while the rime was still on it. Kinda messed it up, though. I say take the rim off.

You can do it by getting a very small tool under the edge and prying them off but you should only push them out from the rear to avoid damaging the cap and/or the wheel area around the cap

Take the rim off and push them out.

will do, I don't want to damage the powder on the wheel.

taking the wheel off sounds like a good idea, prying it from the outside sounds like a bad idea.
