Default Centre caps

The Audi centre caps seem to suffer a lot of corrosion around the outer ring.


So I decided to have a look underneath to see what could be done about it.
Sadly the only way to remove the ring means destroying it as it is crimped on the full circumference of the cap.
That ruled out any chance of refurbishing. All is not lost though as the area underneath the ring is painted the same as the rest of the cap face and with a bit of spit and polish looks not too bad.


Now I can have a choice of plain centre cap rims


or polished...
