  • Center Cap Ideas

    Bought a set of R8 replica rims for my MKV GTI, and the center caps are ugly. So I had a talk with a friend who owns a CNC shop and has volunteered his time to make me some custom caps....

    Not sure what I want to do just yet, but am looking for some cool and different ideas. Here are a few I am toying with, but I am incredibly open to ideas!
















    For those unfamiliar with the R8 rims, here is what they look like....

                      They would still bend the tab, and welding it would discolour and likely warp them.

                          To be honest, i dont think people would try and pop them, I had my goose on my roof for almost a summer and only ever had 1 person try and take it.

                          My remove before flight tag...... nadda.
