Is there any option for wheel center cap with the new logo? (not dynamic)

I have the VW logo, but I would love to have with R.
I have vent caps with the R logo, but I didn't see anywhere the caps.

Thanks!
Yes, I saw this, I even talked to the seller a few months ago.
The R is not complete, and the shipping is 2 times the price of the caps.
These are not caps, but covers that you stick on top of your cover

Gotcha. I just figured that the odd "incompleteness" of the logo in the picture was just to cover themselves legally, and that the actual product would be of the complete logo. Good to know.
 
Badgeskins?

Just an FYI on Aliexpress stuff where the logo's are incomplete, that's due to trademark/copywrite. They just can't show a photo of the full logo, but they come with the full logo.
 
badgeskin is crazy expensive. $54CAD bucks for 4 little vynil sticker.
Agreed. I like their product because they are rarely wrong but the price is ridiculous for what it is (add the shipping and it becomes obscene). I ended up buying a cricut and a sheet of vinyl and made a bunch myself. It took some trial and error but they turned out fine.

Yeah, not sure who else does the vinyl sticker other than the one from AliExpress, which @chris28house mentioned their offering is actually a full R logo. That Badgeskins is $41 shipped to me in Denver. The aliexpress and the Badgeskins are at least a couple to choose from.

I just bought the AliExpress one. For $19cad shipped its not a bad deal.

That's funny, as I did about 30 minutes ago as well. Figured why not give them a shot. It was $12 shipped for me.
 
These are for my aftermarket wheel and the center caps OD is also 67mm, so I figured I had nothing to lose.
Man, I am glad you mentioned this. So, I guess I would use these to put on the stock Estorils on the R. But there was a part of me that these would work on the aftermarket wheel and tire combo I would be getting for it. But I do not think they will work with them now that you mention this.

Will depend on the CB of your aftermarket wheels. If they aren't using hubcentric rings, then you're probably good.

My plan is to get Assetto Gara wheels for my second set.

I'd like to have a real wheel cap, instead of a cover glued over :(
So many with the previous logo, but nothing with the new one :O
 
So is the center cap on the 19" stock estorils on mkVIII golf r 67mm or 57mm?...I'm looking to buy some Neuspeed RS Wheels & I'm going to want to put "VW" center cap in them
I just found the following from an online retailer selling VW center caps:

“56mm inner and 65mm outer diameter.”

I had the same question as I was considering a set of Rotiform RSEs at some point but have no idea as to whether or. It I could use my OEM center caps with them.

I just went ahead and measured my Estorils that are sitting in my garage for you (I also dropped my center cap into my stacked pile of wheels, but that's a problem for a different day). Ignore the 'pitting', that's just dust that turning up the contrast on the photos makes look like pitting.

There's a little "lip" over the edge - the ID of the bore is 57mm, the ID of the outer bore (what would be the OD of the cap) is ~67mm.

So a cap that has a 56mm ID and a 65mm OD should fit perfectly.
