4.2-V8 chrome badge - needed?

Post by DIE-M3 » Fri Nov 23, 2007 4:44 pm

While surfing through some youtube vids I notice one RS4 had a chrome badge with 4.2L-V8. It seemed similar in font to the RS4 style and they where mounted above the side indictators. Any ideas where I can order 3?

These are not from RS4, The S5 has V8 badges on the wings and I guess someone has made them up from these. Try a dealer or vagparts.co.uk
Good luck

the 4.2L V8 badge is likely to be a back badge off a A8. they have a 4.2L badge.

All B7 S4's and RS4's sold in the US have a V8 badge on the front wings. Available from any dealer, or online from vagparts or audi-accessories.

The 4.2L-V8 badge is from a different model - as others have already said.

Why an earth would you want to put badges on it? people put S/RS badges and M bades on standard cars to make them look better than they really are. When you already have the best you can get anyone who cares what your car is will know whats under the bonnet. I guess I just hate badges but seems a shame to stick pointless badges over such a great car. :rant:
Current car..... hmmmmm????

Apparently makes it quicker - especially on non black models :-)
Everyone is unique, just like you and me.
