It doesn't fit but I've seen mercedes centercaps retrofitted to go on with a new roundel glued on top. what are you looking for the wheel or the cover?sigpicComment

I've been toying with the idea of making some stainless caps, use like 3 setscrews from the backside. If someone makes something, or if there's an 'off the shelf' type part, I'd got that way tho, mainly because tightening the setscrews would suck.
I'm interested in hearing what Merc part that is that works/fits. I know nothing of Benz stuff, so if anybody can support that idea, please post what you know.
It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.Comment

ok maybe i should of been more clear. when the wheel is mounted on the car, the center wheel bearing cover is exposed throught the center bore of the rim. i have turbine covers but im not going to use them, I want to cover up the wheel bearing with a BMW logo, but need some sort of a cover for the rim, just for the small hole in the center.Comment

not to harp on technicalities but you were clear and it's understood by post #7. the following comments are OT from what you are looking for.
back on topic
i agree, if i had those m5 rims, i wouldnt want either of those two covers. cant believe they dont come with center caps.Comment
