That looks way cool! cool.gif

Very subtle and mean looking.

Painting the lowers is a big improvement, I can't believe Audi put all that unpainted plastic around the bottom of their cars, makes them look unfinished.

Nice job! beerchug.gif

Excellent !

Did you need to make any suspension changes for the 19's to fit?? and to prevent it looking like a 4x4 !

I'm riding on the stock sport suspension, with no rubbing problems!

I think I saw some of these pix on RS6.com?

Pretty cool though. I also saw an A4 similar to this one but its a silver 2002 A4 2.4 with colour keyed lowers (probably belongs to a guy in Ipswich Audi), sports pack + 6 spoke style alloys (almost similar style to the S4 but without the indents). I almost mistaken it for the new S4 - but it caught my eyes no doubt about that. He must've got them painted. It didn't have the OEM bodykit thats for sure. I don't think Audi does colour keyed lowers as options, if they do it probably charge a fortune.

I 'think' if you order a sport package on the A4/A6 you now get the 9-spoke RS alloys, sport seats and painted lowers, probably some other stuff but who cares...

The new sport pack comes with 5 spoke 17's the RS4 reps come in 18" as an option (£800) over and above the sport pack, as does colour keyed lowers (£350), and I care as I had to fork out the cash for them!! wink.gif

Very nice, just a few questions for you.

What width rim and size of rubber are you running?

Why the choice of Merc style rims?

How did you remove your headlights?

Cheers

1. 19x8.5 wheels with 245/35/19 tires

2. I just liked the look of those particular wheels. I wanted a "big" "full" looking wheel because I think the body of the b6 a4 is pretty big compared to the b5 a4's.

3. Removing the headlights is very easy, just 4 screws. I actually wrote up a how-to for swapping us spec lights for euro lights. That can be found here. The first couple of steps deal with removing the headlamps: http://www.vagparts.com/pages/NewA4_xenon_install.htm
