Air Intakes
Posted: Sun May 04, 2003 6:25 pm
For some time I have been intending to do something about the air dams for the intercoolers since having the RS4 units fitted a couple of months ago and at the same time the fog lamps removed to increase air flow.
Came across some plastic mesh at a car accessory shop and so set about removing the standard grilles.
After prising them off and cuting and sticking the mesh in place the effect is a big improvement and the air flow to the IC's will surely be increased.
For the central spoiler section I simply used a jig saw to remove the old grille (didn't want to go to all the trouble of removing the front bumper) and then working from behimd secured the new grille in places using a glue gun. Retained the middle sections reansvers sections as I wanted to keep the overall S4 look.
I'll post some pics when I have a moment.
