Hi..
New to this forum so apologies if this post has been discussed before but ive had my B7 RS4 Saloon for just over a year now and am looking into making some changes such as new exhaust etc..
What i have seen on another RS4 were carbon fibre mirrors that looked rather cool and just wondered if anyone knew where they could be purchased from and if they can be retro fitted to the car? or if they are an audi exclusive option that have to be specified at factory stage?
Cheers

I have not seen these at all. Could be made though if the demand was sufficient...?

I like the red seat belts.Those carbon mirrors would cost a fortune.

My sister had red seat belts in her MG Metro, some years ago!

That was the first thing I thought of, and the photo of the car on Pistonheads doesn't make me feel any different...

Probably matched her boyfriends braces - times I'd rather forget!

Something's not right with that car. It's probably a parallel import, but I've never seen any B7 RS4's with those tailpipes when I'm in mainland Europe.

I think it stated that it had a MTM exhaust of some sort...

Oh yep, just saw it. But 800 miles in 2 years and modification's seems a bit strange to me.

but the only non-OEM mod appears to be the exhaust and loads of people do that to the RS4s
the seats with carmine red side inserts and matching floor mats and stitching is a std option (over £3k though)
I am guessing the carbon mirrors where an exclusive option - agree they must have cost a fortune, and to me look no way near as nice as the std ali ones
