Question about Avant Garde M510 center caps

Noobie here, I was wondering if I can replace the Avant Garde M510 to Porsche logo cap. I called Avant Garde and they told me that they do not sell such cap. Any ideas?

I believe the M510 (I'm also getting a set after the roads are repaired) accepts standard center caps. That said, you might have to paint match a set to make them work.

I have those wheels, and it's been a while since I tried to make them fit, and I couldn't get them on there. IIRC they are not the same size.

I really like them. They look pretty "nice" not like a cheap wheel, not saying it looks high end, but appropriate for the car. They weigh just about the same as the OE setup, and are pretty easy to clean. All in, I am happy with my decision.

If you look under the Avant Garde gallery of Posche's with those wheels, non of them have crest caps. I doubt the wheels will accept them.
