Default Different center caps for stock alloys?

I'm running just the stock 6 spoke aluminum rims right now and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get ahold of the mini center caps?

Looking for ones like below:


EDIT: Found a closeup for clarification

You can get them from your dealership for about $100, perhaps less, but it adds up fast since there's 25 lug bolt covers and 4 centercaps.

The centercaps are the ones for the "Rave" wheels. And there's a few options on the lug bolt covers.

Well I'm good on lug bolt covers, I actually have ones given to me off of an 08 A4 right now, so that's taken care of. I'd just like to cover up the centers if it was reasonable was all. Any idea on a price for just the centers?
