Think I need to see it in the flesh as in the pics I'm unsure as it may be a tad too wide. Get down to a meet at some point to show it off.

I see!

I wanted to avoid the "bolt on" look which would work with earlier shapes of the A4.

I collected the car a day before the official RS6 images were released. Would have been reassuring to have that as a guide.

One word......


Stunning



Some more words. It's a wide body so why the comments of too wide, although I guess thats personal taste, but for me it bang on and if I was to see it in the flesh I may have to ship mines to darkest engerland to get it done to.


Thanks for sharing :notworthy: :biggrin3:

Thank you :D

I have wondered what the car would look like in Sepang and Sprint blue :bigblink:

I believe ibis white actually reduces the arch impact somewhat. The arches would look a lot MORE obvious in Blue / Red / Silver, though Sepang is relatively subdued (with the Scottish weather in mind)

Very nice, good work.

I think somebody on audizine has put the RS4 wings onto a B8, but this looks better.

In one of the pics of the rear is that a none standard defuser. If it is what one is it and where did it come from. I must admit I do really like the whole kit.

Ah... Long story.

I initially ordered this from the US - Deval carbon fibre rear valence. Unfortunately it got lost in transit.

The one on mine is a replica, fabricated by the same team that worked on the arches. It's finished in gloss black and the fins are slightly bigger than the Deval item, I think mine looks better :)

The amazing thing is this was fabricated using the standard OEM rear valence. The final product is amazing IMO.

Definitely. Looks so much better than the standard. I hate the look of the rear on mine. Need one of those defusers.
