A Center Cap "Revolution"
Hey guys, my dad pointed out ( a Porsche enthusiast) that the "crossed flag" caps on my wheels point in various directions relative to the valve stem. I know this is ****, but in almost all the C6 pro photos we could find, and in the C6 book, the crossed flag "V" points to the valve stem. I guess Porsches do this too.
What are yours doing, and should we start a "Revolution" to align these things a certain way.
How do you safely remove the center caps?

I turned mine to point correctly the first day I had the car home. The only "safe" way to remove the center cap is to take the wheel off and push it from behind.
I used a thin blade screwdriver to remove mine, but you run the risk of slipping and scratching the center cap or worse, the wheel.
Doing this is not ****. It is normal.
