Center caps for R84 wheels?

Hey everyone,

I removed the OEM center caps for my r84 x-lites, and was wondering if there were any center caps that would fill up just the center hole but not have any chrome/steel? Like just a plain black center cap, preferably with the MINI logo in the center.

There's a DIY option which might work, see: http://www.northamericanmotoring.com...nter-caps.html

No, I went and bought lighter weight rims which came with their own center caps.

I purchased some 2" diameter MINI center caps for my Rota Slipstreams, however they were too small. If you could measure and see if a 2" diameter center cap could fit on your R84's, I'd be happy to sell mine to you for $10 and shipping.
