    Wanting all black center wheel caps for stock TRD Off Road rims. I had the wheels sandblasted and painted black but want the center cap to also be black but it’s trimmed in silver. It’s plastic snap on wheel cap so couldnt sandblast. Would a TRD wheel cap for this stock wheel rim? If not the TRD would a standard Toyota wheel cap work from a regular 4Runner or SR5
    Are there part numbers to the wheel cap themselves?

    You can removed the silver ring and paint it. On the backside are little bent over tabs. Straighten them to remove the ring. Carefully because they’re soft. Some may break so be prepared to put a few spots of adhesive at the tab slots or (3M tape under it) to hold it when you reinstall the ring.

    My TRD Off Road wheels had center cap with silver ring that had little clips that can bend back and the ring can come off. The center Toyota symbol could just push the prongs on inside and it popped the symbol off. As for the entire center cap - loook for pry slot on cap edge near a lug nut - can place a FH screwdriver in slot and I used a hammer to pry against the screwdriver to pop the cap off. Hope this is what you were asking.

    If you have the OEM tire-change tool kit there’s an item that looks like a long-handled spoon. Use that to lever off the hub cap at a slot.
