Externally, very smooth. Nice weave. Not so much internally but I don't expect that it'll impede air flow.

Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
Glad you people that have received them already seem very happy with them.
I’m sure they will complement your engine bays.

Mine have arrived. Ordered some silicon joiners to make the engine bay look even nicer.

Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
I just ordered some SAMCO hump hose joiners. They are probably overkill (as they are for boost pipes really), but I figured the hump would give a little slack and easier to fit.
Edit: They aren’t 90mm (think I was confused with our Seat Leon. They are 100-105mm

Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
Bit late for me (there was a mix up with my mail) but it's all sorted and payment sent in full. They will ship to Switzerland for an extra fee. Thanks a lot @Chris
Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
Had an email about the hoses. Can’t get the hump hoses in black, so I’ve gone for straight ones instead (102mm). I get most of my samco hoses from Merlin Motorsport.

Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
Mine got delivered today.
Never really looked before, but always assumed they were left and right handed...?

Maybe someone else has got a pair of the other side.

Wonder what the odds are on them being local to me, so we can simply organise an exchange...?

Mine arrived today. I will check if mine are ok tomorrow.

Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
Well when I read you had got two the same i thought...... Bet i get the other two as this sort of thing typically happens to me and to my surprise
yes they arrived.
Both for the passenger side intake
Sure we can organise to get them swapped.. I am located in Scotland so not a quick drop off i am afraid

D'oh! Yeah, there's a law about that, I believe - typical that we're almost as far apart as could we could be, within the UK!cover99 wrote:Well when I read you had got two the same i thought......

Guess we could try and organise couriers between us, although it could get complicated if either one got lost/damaged in transit, etc.
Re: Audi C5 RS6 Carbon Air Intake Guides
The vendor should sort it out, really.
Just received mine. Looks like I got lucky and received a matching pair.
