B5 RS4 Saloon

Post by rweir » Thu Aug 03, 2006 10:09 pm

So, I have finally done it ...

As some of you know I replaced all the internals with RS4 parts.

My B5 S4 Saloon has now had the RS4 bodywork completed. Which includeds RS4 wings, bonnet, bumper, grills, doors, skirt and finally, rear quarter panels!

I will get some pictures soon, but I have to say I am very impressed with the results...

I actaully prefered the mirrors I have to the alu ones, but the door surrounds, hmm, not thought about that!

MCB, conversion was done by Diligent Coachworks in Edmonton, London.
