I don't like the black effect.

On '92 cars and later, but particularly '92, the centre caps did not match the dark silver paint. Two schemes you might consider:
  1. Get a paint shop to match up the silver on the wheels, and use filler to fill in the SUBARU writing so it is incognito and paint matched
  2. Paint them chrome. The studs are already chrome. I'm not a fan of bling, but I think chrome centres will look good on a silver or on a black SVX
