Re: Carbon Fibre Engine Cover & Parts
A couple of shots of the first cover installed under the hood.

Re: Carbon Fibre Engine Cover & Parts

Re: RS5 costs compared to S5
I had exactly the same decision to make with the S4 & RS4 B8 (also considered a B9 S4) I ended up with the B8 2014 RS4 and I love it. I felt like I'd end up still wanting for an RS if I went for the S. Didn't buy it expecting it to be cheap to run, but 20mpg as a maximum is a little shock for the sy...

Re: Carbon Fibre Engine Cover & Parts
Quick update. Just working on finishing touches to the pattern for these, then I can take the final mould and crack on. Price is going to be £250 plus VAT for the first couple, then £300 plus VAT. I've made them so the cover slots right on top of the original, so no issues with mounting points etc. ...
