Search for "aero wheel cap kit for tesla" on Amazon. I got the Kenpenri kit with black and silver center caps (which is oddly no longer available). Looks WAY better than the plastic Tempest wheel covers and there's a huge bonus - no more "crackling" sound when the tires are slowly rotating - I discovered that "feature" of the Tempest covers when I summoned my new MS out of the garage. It sounded like driving over bubblepak.
Here's my MS sans Tempest wheel covers. BTW, I couldn't find the black logo on a silver background either, but these center caps look great in person.

Wow ugly as f...
A lot of you are thinking it...there...I said it.
That was my car. I've given up on the Tempest wheels and bought some ebay gloss black slipstream instead. Plus DIY chrome delete, much better.Sure, here you go. From the web, not my car. View attachment 523660
Here's what I did over the weekend, painting only the lighter gray parts. Currently deciding if I like the light gray ring enough to keep the color roughly the same when placing rim savers or also making it black.

Yes. I honestly LOVE the looks of the 21", but opted for 19 for improved range and ride comfort.Curious, are 19's more "efficient" than 21's? Have no idea and I've been considering swapping the 21's on my MSP100D for 19's just for the sake of having more rubber in between the road and the wheels for rough roads, potholes (lots here in Portland) etc as I feel the car would last longer with more cushion (less rattles etc)...But would also be cool too if I'd gain range as a result too.
You’re not wrong... WTF was Tesla thinking? Terrible.
There’s no point to aero caps if they look so bad that most ppl are just gonna remove ‘em first chance they get.

If it is anything like the Model 3, "most" people actually kept the caps. I removed mine because I think the Model 3 wheels under the caps look really good. But most Model 3 with 18" wheels on the road (that I could see) kept the caps.
Exactly the opposite of my experience.
Where I am, I’d say a good 60-70% of base Model 3 wheels have the caps removed. Maybe more (I’m being conservative).
As you say, the rims underneath look *much* better.
