I love those rims. And the mirror caps look lovely. But why is there an s line badge next to the number plate?

Yes. Take it off. Doesn't gel well with the clean front! Elegant cars need to look elegant.

Thanks for the DIY! Install was quite easy! A lot easier than the B8s. Fitment could be better, but overall I think it's a good change.

fitment could def be better but it's good enough. They're not perfect but very good. In 2 weeks you will completely forget about it and life will be exponentially better with S mirror caps.

Default Decided to go back to stock

I bought the exact same S4 mirror caps from the same source as Kenneth and had a similar experience except my car is silver and I underestimated how much you don't notice them on a silver car. I ended up taking them off after just two weeks and they have been in the original packaging/box ever since. If anyone is interested in taking these off my hands feel free to private message me and I can send you photos and will let them go at a very fair price. They have zero damage, no scratches, and are basically brand new as they were only on my car for two weeks. I experienced the same fitment issues as Kenneth so as long as you are aware of those. I paid $179 for the pair (with blind spot cut outs).
