Porsche cap sits as deep as original cap I assume. I love both.
R8 is a bit in your face, Porsche is more subtle.
Will order that one too and will use depending on mood.

P.S. My wife's got a whole crate of earrings.
I'll have as many oil caps for my A8

Agreed, and me too probably…

PPS - I misread your P.S (I just got up…) and thought it read:-

"P.S. My wife's got a whole crate of earrings. I'll have many as oil caps for my A8" - Slightly different meaning...
