I've bought mu car with the Audi RS4 alloy wheels and the original ones. The Audi's are cool however the Audi badge is really annoying me. Anyone got any ideas on what I can do here. I've been told that you can remove the badge and stick a custom made one on. There must be surely an alternative solution, i.e. replacement caps? I dont mind if the badge is plain or has the Seat logo.
have a search on my posts from 2002,2003 I think
You cant get a badge that fits perfectly, so..
remove the audi rings, carefully fill the hole with filler and smooth.
get a SEAT badge cut in vinyl to fit in the diameter of the centre cap BUT cover the old rings. IIRC I did have to stretch the logo slightly.
Put sticker on - looks the business

i make wheel centres give me the size and what you want and i will knock some up for you + they come with a resin dome on them so they last and look good
if you get he centres made, remember to get the diameter at the hihest part of the centre cap as its slightly curved. If you just measure the dark grey bit, it will be a little too small (as it sits on the curved bit)
Keep trying Vinyl store. If you want to get the diameter of the dark grey bit and the length of the Audi rings, I can do the artwork for you and get the size right, so you can take that file to a signwriters. (I have the SEAT logo)
No disrespect to Steveo, but I found the sticker looked better and more OE than a badge as that covers the whole centre section

Found a better pic of my old alloys. (note the S is not symetrical top to bottom - the pic shows the S upside down)

hee hee, I can assure you it was, its due to the angle and the curvature of the centre section if you have a look at some of the other pics (link in sig), it looks correct

Hey,
I am in exatly the same position. I have the 17" wheels form the Audi TT and they have the exact same center caps.
Anyone who is going to get any made please let me know and i'll come in on the order with you, might even get us a discount if we get more made?
Please let me know!
Cheers,
James

OK guys. Get me a measurement of the dark grey area AND the overall size of the Audi rings. I'll then tweak my SEAT artwork for Linz who I'm sure will do you her best deal.
let me know dims. Dont foget, those with real Audi wheels will need to fill the recess where the rings are, but thats easy enough

Ok .... some good news ive found some seat wheel badges that are perfect size for the rs4 centre caps, the s logo has a 3d look and i think they look the dogs bollocks compared to the stick on made up badges. they come on a centre cap from the dealer but its easy to remove also they sorta made out of plastic so not much bend in them so people with audi rings u will need it flatish.
Part number - 6k0 601 149 P
only bad thing is that they are £8 pound something each, the size is just under 90mm which is perfect fit i'll post some more pics when i have them fitted
