Black Styling Parts??

Is this a UK car from a UK dealer?

Other people here have ordered the black styling pack and the diffuser trim is black.

Hiya guys. I'm tcmrdon's dad. And the owner of said RS6.
I had it straight from the horse's mouth. (RS BOFFINS AT AUDI) they have confirmed quote " my car is spec correct"
Unfortunately I said this looks <beep>. And a trip to SPECSAVERS would be appropriate.
My son and I would be very interested if some one else who has a 2015 spec with high gloss black option does have the diffuser in black as a picture of it would be very interesting and I'd shove up the dealers nose.

Have you been on the configurator? just spec up your car on the configurator and print it out, it clearly does not have the aluminium trim on the back.

Also, have a look a bamf's car here viewtopic.php?f=76&t=114393&p=728183&hi ... or#p728183 it has black pack, I hope you get it sorted.

Unless you spoke to some Germans, there are no "RS boffins" in Milton Keynes.

Another picture for you to show to the dealer.
defo looks like they have dropped a bollock and fitted the standard part instead of gloss black

The strange thing is that the all black diffuser is standard on the RS6 without any styling pack. They must have added a diffuser which is normally part of the Matt Aluminium Styling Pack.

How did that get through quality checks

Questioned Audi again this morning, they have contacted technical specialists in Milton Keynes and they have checked 2 similar spec'd rs6's with gloss black styling and they also have matt alu surround.

However the only thing we can think of is, on the options list there is an option to remove tow bar preparation

my dad hasn't had this option.
@RSphantom and @Bamf out of a matter of interest. have you selected to remove tow bar prep?? this would probably explain

but if so still doesnt make any form of sense because its nothing to do with the change in diffuser itself

Post by **Bamf** » Mon Mar 30, 2015 11:26 am

I Have the tow bar fitted to my car. the center section of the diffuser is removable to allow for the tow bar mechanism to swing down and lock into place when in use.

when I was choosing the spec for my car the whole look I was going for was the sepang blue and gloss black trim on everything. I can't remember seeing an option with or without the tow bar where the gloss black styling pack came with an alu diffuser top cover.

ok so that theory doesn't work then as yours is same as dads

Audi have now ordered the part to replace, Obviously seems that most peoples specs are going to be wrong, only people that are very particular will notice and make them change it
