Money can't buy you love, but it can buy you a well sorted racecar
Re: My Rs4 Project

Oh yes I love carbon, I've just built a light weight carbon mountain bike that has cost a fortune to make sure all the components are lightweight too.
They were delivered today but I was out. Will get them Monday,

The one that was done a while back that was just the standard diffuser just carbon looked good but argon said they're doing abother variant of it too, shouldn't be too long hopefully, not a fan of their front splitter
Re: My Rs4 Project
No I'm not a fan of the splitters either. I have my oil splitter and grill surround carbon but that's enough for me up front. I have thought the Audi logo but don't really want to take it away from the OEM+ look.

Re: My Rs4 Project
Out of curiosity how many of the front splitters have you seen in the flesh fellas?

Re: My Rs4 Project
i dont like the chrome on mine so will most probably do the front badge carbon, ive done it black for a while but reverted back to chrome as i blended in too much, im having the rear one made at the minute,Youngben wrote:No I'm not a fan of the splitters either.

ive only seen one, not a fan of the sides where it flares out, its also too deep, i prefer the dtm splitter even tho its not for the rsf it still looks like a more subtle better fit.scaghead wrote:Out of curiosity how many of the front splitters have you seen in the flesh fellas?
Re: My Rs4 Project
Do you mind me asking what kind of cost was involved in the badges? I'm going titanium optics in the new year and after seeing these i think they would look the part...!Rick_RS4 wrote:a few of my carbon bits have been finished off today and sent out for me on monday, cant wait to get them fitted, theres still a few more parts being made by the guys at argon and should be done for me after the new year. Great service from these guys
will hopefully get out to get some pics of the new wheels this weekend.

Re: My Rs4 Project
yeah im not a fan of chrome either so was planning on doing the Audi logos the same colour as the mirrors in Satin think they would look a lot nicer

Re: My Rs4 Project
no progress on the brakes at the minute due to the new kitchen going in but I have had 5 mins to fit some smoked indicators and make a new front badge using the carbon argon badges.

waiting on a few bits from argon at the minute.
waiting for a good day to get the wax out and also get some decent pictures of the new wheels.

Re: My Rs4 Project
small update
ive been busy trying the 390s on and they will fit but need adamters making up so will draw some up soon.
the badges are on and was going to get some pics but i had the fan problem so had to take the front bumper off to get to the controller.
while the bumper was off i decided to do the headlights again, something which ive been meaning to do for a while, th smoked tint film i put on did dim the headlights some what so they had to go but i didnt like all the chrome inside, so i opened them up again.

when i did the clear corner mod back in the day i didnt like the fact there were no lenses, so i bought some drl lights initionall i was going to retrofit these into the drl housing but they were too small.

took them appart

fitted in the indicator housing


i also covered the front chrome strip in carbon wrap, i wasnt going to put fake carbon on here but the new stupp looks pretty good and is glossy now unlike the old vinyl.

and the finished article all sprayed satin black, will get a better finished pic at the weekend as light in the kitchen was too direct

Headlights look spot on buddy. Fancy doing mine? Cash or sexual favours? Your choice.
