Brazing them shut would have probably been best but I used Silicone caps from 034 Motorsports. Much better quality than the NAPA caps.

Which ones did you use? 3/8" ID for the front one and 1/2" ID for the rear one?
I looked high an low for these about a year ago and ended up sticking with the rubber heater hose caps. Never thought to check 034. I wonder if they make them? Since I can't find anything comparable anywhere else?
Also, you can source the necessary hard pipes from a UK car or one that was spec'd without the hot weather package and not need the caps at all. I had these on them S6 Avant conversion.

I had both pipes out, yes. It was done during the manual conversion. I don’t have any photos, but I’ll see if I can get some.
RS6 #1, 01E, 2.5" straight pipes, AMD Stage 1 6MT tune, 460awhp/530awtq on AMD's Mustang dyno. TOTALLED.. RS6 #2, Ebony Black Pearl on black/silver combination with carbon, up and running with 6 gears and AMD tune.
Front pipe is galvanized(?) steel; it's magnetic. I cut off the nipple and welded it shut after replacing the rubber caps multiple times.
