well if you look at the back the pony is held into the rest of the cap with pastic pins that are melted down. So they could come out, but getting them back in could be a problem.

In theory you could use a drill press (or be very precise w/ a hand drill) take off the melted plastic pins of the horse, paint the center caps and then use a plastic bonding adhesive to put the pony's back in.

just take some damn blue painters tape and throw it on there......Then, you just kinda trim round it real quick and then push the overhanging towards the emblem. Last...take some cardboard...like on the back of a pad of paper.....Cut that into like 3/16" strips and then run it around the emblem bacause there is a good size crack around the pony for it and it will seal it all up for paint

it is MUCH easier to do than it sounds lol

new ones are ridiculously expensive...why spend 100 bucks when you can just tape, but if you must then 50 Resto sell em
