repaint center caps ?

Getting ready to paint wheels and I was wondering what the best way to repaint these caps? How does the center emblem out without breaking them? Can they be cleaned up or do they have to be replaced?

I was going to paint them the same color of the wheels??

The center is just a stick on piece. You might try a google search or E Bay to find new ones or repro's

They`re supposed to be chrome.The centers are stickers.You can get repro centers in plastic for cheap.

Swap meet vendors are the cheapest.
