Well after getting my new RS4 a few weeks ago iv been looking for a us spec / plinth with a short recess but not been possible so far.

Well my log book came back today and me being impatient I got busy making my own. Had to finish a bit early so could do with a skim of filler and sanding over with a finer grit but here is where I got...

Not sure why the website isn't allowing the image to display on here?

Anyway, it looks good.

Thanks for that man, I'm not too sure either.


Still on the lookout for one but this is good enough for the time being

I'm not sure there is a number plate plinth available like the one you've made. Isn't the US spec one just smooth without any recess.

Yeah iv seen the smooth ones. But thought they did a shortened recess one (I could very easily be wrong) seen a couple but they could be custom jobs.

Would be nice to find a us spec avant boot now haha
