Nah mate, got BBS RC's. I bought some caps 2mm too big for some schnitzer type 1's 2 cars ago. That really made my sh!t itch! It's up to you though, if you like them with Audi caps then go for it. Some guy sold me his r8 alloys with vw centrecaps that he had on a Leon for £150 with new tyres coz people took the p!ss at him! The mug didn't think of buyin different caps  :rolleyes:  definitely better than Monzas though.......

I had those TT 6 spokes(Avus i think?) on a mk4 about 8 years ago, i made my own centre caps by gettin vw badges to sit where the audi ones do and bonded them on  :wink: i think they were mk 3 badges  :undecided:

I prefer the competitons to the 6 spoke audi alloys, IMO the competitions have the perfect ofset, i love the way they sit on my car  :smiley:

I wouldnt bother swapping and buying centre caps if there not what you want in the long run. Just sell em on and get the ones you want!  :wink:

Trust me I would lol I can't push myself into spending 200 quid on wheels which need refurbing though so am still looking for bargains.

Well done to the pikey nicking bits off someone elses car so they have to pay the 40 quid you should be paying.
