    I've noticed that the wheels are composed of two parts, the main wheel itself and a hub cap (for lack of a better term). I was told by my salesman at delivery that it could be replaced if it were damaged. I'm curious about how this "hubcap" is held on and what the steel wheel looks like without the hubcap on it. It's obviously not held on like a normal hubcap and I don't want to ruin something by prying about it.
    Anyone tried removing it?

    Best to remove wheel and push out from back side. Plastic tabs with a spring steel ring, which pushes out on those plastic tabs.

    It’s not only a 2021 limited wheel / center cap type. Most all models have this set up. Might help broaden your request instead of only looking at one individual wheel center cap

    I'm inherently lazy and was hoping someone had done it and could post a picture.
    (Not so much of how it was done but what it looks like with them off.)
