Maybe.. 
But I'm offering this deal as a service, I'm not making mony with this..As you can see the rings are sold for 12 Euro, and I only want this price and the cost for sending it to the US :wink:

ok. So I decided to "pony up" $50 and ordered three sets of these aluminum rings via paypal from this source. Just got them yesterday.
Thoughts:
I was originally hoping that these rings would have some little ridges to them (much like the similar knobs in the D3 A8 and C6 A6)....but they do not. Just smooth aluminum. I fit them on last night; the large one fits nice and snug while the small one is too loose - in my opinion. No glue was included in the package...just the rings (as if I'd use glue to hold these things on). I might keep the large ring on....to see if it's an "acquired taste"...not sure. I was originally thinking that I could keep dirty/greasy fingerprints off the knobs of my RNS-E by using these. That is still a valid assumption....but shouldn't be the primary reason for getting these.
Overall look:
Doesn't fit in my interior (2001 A6 with dark burlwood) and chrome (not brushed aluminum accents). Would probably look more appropriate in an A3 or RS6 with more aluminum accents...in my opinion. If you have any wood accents...it will probably clash.
Bottomline: :-({|=
Need to have the right kind of interior accents to look good. Hey, it's only $17/set shipped from Germany...no big deal! Someone had to be the "guniea pig" and check them out.
If anyone is interested, I'd be willing to sell you a set for $15/shipped (just PM me). 8)
