    Wheel cap badges?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I got some new wheels, the center caps are plain and flat. I'd like to find a set of "ring" badges for the caps to dress them up a little. The flat center part of the cap measures 2.75"... so if I can find some badges that are 2" long or so to put on the caps, that would be great.

    Anyone know where I can find something like this?? Only thing I can find are the ~7" long trunk badges.

    Re: Wheel cap badges?

    I have a set of RS4 reps I had to do this with. (audi rings fell off center caps (really shitty obviously)) I went on ebay and was able to find several different types of Audi ring decals for pretty cheap. I ended up painting the center caps a darker gray color I liked, and then sticking the decals on, and then spraying over with clear coat. They have lasted (w/ out pealing off or anything) for a year or two. Just a thought.

    Here is a pic or two, from close-up to far away, so you can see what I am talking about.
    Everyone I know thinks the wheels are OEM and came with the center caps (I humbly correct them (while letting on that they are cheap replica wheels)). But I would prefer raised actual rings (as opposed to decals) like you are requesting. Not sure how well they would stay on there, wheels get a lot of abuse/worst of the bumps etc.

    I'm sure there are, but they are simple, to scale, rings, which is all I wanted. So for my purposes, they are perfect. Exact size I wanted etc.

    Yeah, just browse Ebay and you should be able to find stickers. How big are the center caps of your Fliks?

    And thank you for the kind words. The car is not without its issues though... Currently getting front CV boot replaced, secondary fan (AC one). Overall I am still pleased with it though! Looks like you are rockin' similar car, black is just so damn hard to keep clean..
