    Next time you are passing an RS that is stationery...can you please see if they look the same size as your detroit ones mate?

    I will keep an eye out too...
    No dramas can do.. had a quick search online, seems the VW centre caps on Detroits are listed as 56mm sized although someone gave even more precise measurements on the golfmk6 forum. I saw a few variations on Skoda caps, 55mm in one spot, while someone was selling 58mm caps and gel stickers on a Skoda forum.. unsure if 1 or 2mm makes a difference there - for a sticker I'd say no, for a cap yes.. so if the Skoda caps you have didn't fit it seems like it would be easy enough to acquire a decent sticker to deal with it (or I'm sure someone sells different sized Skoda branded caps?).

    No worries, looking forward to some pics if you go down this route

    Almost had a set for sale, but thinking I'm going to stick with them myself, got some other mods in mind now!

    On my Audi wheels, I just removed the Audi logo off the cap & stuck on some cheap (4 for $6) Skoda badges from ebay. Looks fine from more than a metre away
