Sorry, a little late to the party here. Sean, did you ever figure out where to source a fourth cap? Or, did anyone here find a source?
Thanks ....

These are gorgeous looking caps...if anyone has found a source and/or the correct part number, or if there is a group buy, I would be interested!

Sorry all, I never checked back on this thread.

Here are the numbers on the back of the caps.

7L5.601.149
7L5.601.149E
Made in Italy
>PA 6-M 30<

That's all it has. Thanks again to No HTwo O for a smooth transaction.

I have not taken the time to find the 4th one to complete the set since I only have two mounted on the rears and no caps on the fronts yet. Have to modify the bear dust covers to fit.

^^^ Thanks Sean,
The 'E' at the end of the second part number is probably the designator that gets you black/silver as opposed to color....

Also, NoHTwoO has told me that the caps came on his Turbo when he bought it from another RL'r but that gentleman passed away recently and there's no more information to be had. If I find out anything more, I'll repost here.

subscribed - really love those caps. Would look so much better than the ones on my wheels now.

Would be so nice to have a matching badge as well!

Count me in on the group buy, especially if it includes the silver crest also.

Is there a chance these are just fake caps which have been copied from Porsche ones and hence the PN is as per?

Nice find....

$105 for a set of 4. (+$20 shipping)

Hard to tell if the color would match your specific wheel though.....

Definitely aftermarket - here are the original Porsche ones - which look a little stark in comparison:
