Any experiences with custom center cap stickers? (3dcarstickers.com

Just got XXR 527 wheels and I really don't want to put on the XXR sticker and haven't had much luck finding ones that I like. Seeing how the 55mm ones are about $20 shipped and from Europe of all places, I started looking at custom ones. This site: http://3dcarstickers.com/en/auxpage_faq seems to make them for $8 and if shipping brings it under $20, I'd like to get it a try. Thinking about using the logo I made below from a red STI logo from the internet.

I have used them before. The adhesive on them is pretty strong, and the clear gel type material used to give the 3D effect feels almost like a softer polyurethane skateboard wheel.. Looks to be made of 3 parts: Convex gel part, print design, then adhesive. Only concern, which it looks like you may not have, is if you have any white in your design it will turn a yellowish hue from sun exposure.
