Title: Anyone got audi wheels...
Post by: player.777 on 21 February 2009, 11:06

...on their Mk4?  Ideally those with TT alloys- or any that have the audi emblem in the centre cap- have you covered this up with a VW badge or left it as audi?  Have you any pics?  Not sure if covering it up would look bodged or whether you can actually buy new centre caps with VW on, and it would look ok??  Not sure.  Anyone got pics or advice?

I had TT wheels on my old mk 4 about 6 years ago, i just took the center cap out and drilled some holes through it and put some Abt front grille badges on them and remounted them piece of piss  :wink:

Yes mate I am liking that look- so do you reckon you can get the centre caps badged up as VW- or is it just a VW sticker over the top???  They look really good mate- looking forward to seeing them on your car.
