I cut it with the chop saw but masked it all up first with duck tape so it didn't split when I cut it.
I also purchased a spare one from Audi just incase £76, but will need it anyway when I go to sell.

here's the back rings as you can see the ebay one is slightly smaller and not as sharp as the original but the one from the states on the bottom is the right size and is as sharp as the original
had a mishap today trying to replace the rear rings it stuck on before i had properly lined it up so i have tried some double sided sticky pads hopefully that will work if not will have to get the proper sticky from a stealers or body Shop

Assuming you centre the badge, I think my solution is simplest!

Was thinking about smoking the rear lights to tone them down a little whats the thoughts?
I agree those back lights look out of place there and need a little 'calm down dear'. Gotta becareful with the smoking or it will look too max power, I think a less is more here, just a shade darker than they already are.
