Default New & improved.

After getting tired of replacing the OEM caps on my RS4 reps, I made some new one's @ work on a CNC machine.<ul><li><a href="http://public.fotki.com/AWDGURU/wheel_caps/">http://public.fotki.com/AWDGURU/wheel_caps/</a</li></ul>

Default Looks alright...I think it would look better on the DTMs...

are you're bigger caps (the OEM one's) metal or plastic...

I have the same rims and they have chrome plastic center caps...

Default Nice look, but...

.....How are you losing OEM caps? I have had them for years, never lost one.

Plus, They can be had for as little as $25/ea depending on where you source them. Nice work on your fabrication though.

They would look great on the DTM's, you should market them and make $53/ea on your own

Default Driving like a nut?

I don't know, I lost 2 last year. I bought 1 @ Schaumburg Audi before, didn't know where else to get one. The one's I originally had were from Achtuning and they weren't done correctly, Ben was nice enoght to send me a replacement.
I am considering doing them for others, with
whatever logo they want.I was sooo tempted to do a RS4 logo....
