RS-type wheel close-up for "1.8T O.C."

Ok, here's a close-up, as requested in the thread linked below.
In response to your statements: (from

1) True, but its the same with OEM wheels. The wheels are coated aluminium while the center caps are brushed alu. They're not designed to match. However its a perfect color match.
2) The caps aren't 100% flush on my wheels, there is a small (1 mm) height difference. They are tight, though.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4gen2/msgs/212757.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/a4gen2/msgs/212757.phtml</a</li></ul>

Use the small center cap puller from the Audi repair kit in the trunk.
In the kit on the left of the spare tire, there should be a small ring shaped piece of metal. Stick the 'tail' in one of the 9 cap openings and pull.
