Default Cup 4 center caps

I'm doing a little ebay shopping today. In anticipation of my 18" Cup 4's that will be coming this week, I'm going to go ahead and get the center caps. Anyone know if the standard Porsche center caps fit?
Outside Diameter =75.5mm or 2 31/32" diameter


Inside Diameter =59.3mm or 2 11/32"

Thanks!

Does the finish match well? Decent quality?
They're all probably made in the same factory somewhere, but just wanted to get some input.

Thanks!

The standard OD Porsche center caps will work on a Cup4. FWIW, there are some Porsche center caps that won't work on some MY 928's due to the front hub dust cover being too bowed out to clear the cap. I don't think this is an issue with any of the caps that were standard on any 928. What year is your car? (just add it to your sig.)

Yep, they're the caps that came originally on the GTS (the XD4 caps with the crest on them). I had them powdercoated and then painted the crests with Testors paint markers a la Tony's instructions:
