Evening all.
A buddy of mine works at Bentley and has just sent me this in the post...
Thoughts? I don't know if I want to keep it on or not. It certainly is (not) original... Although bound to devide opinion...
I may keep it as a paper weight

Certainly different, is your emoji big enough too? Maybe a photo of your whole engine bay in the daylight might give it a bit of a better perspective. I would of thought it’s a bit pricey too.
Cheers

Yes I'll pop up another one over the w/e.
Unsure about the emoji size... Its looks normal size on my phone.
On the cost, you're prob right! He turned up in a Mulsanne once, which was worth more than my house!

Yea will be good to see. It’s about the size of my thumbnail on my phone, must be my end. Maybe you could find out as a comparison to an R8 cap. Is there any modification to get it to fit or does it go straight in?
Cheers

Slotted straight in. No drama. The base looks exactly the same as the original. Sits a little higher though.

I had the R8 caps on my B7 (oil, coolant and power steering). I've now got the R8 one for oil on my C7 and a porsche one for my coolant but it doesn't quite click closed like the R8 one did.

I quite like this oil cap:

Not sure if 8tnfits yet though. I assume so as most vag engine caps are similar. They do a matching coolant cap too.
