Default I have seen pics with the RS4 Carbon fiber interior pieces... Big $$$

Like $1k or so for all of them. You can order the Alum. pieces from the S4 from Clairparts.com.

Default The S4 bright aluminum trim fits. It's about $150 for all six pieces from Clair...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/15323/img_0023.jpg"></center><p>...you should also get about 3 doz mounting clips from your dealer. They are not included with the trim and you'll likely destroy the stock clips in the process of removing them.

Default I'm so tempted, but I have a 2.8 with the wood around the shifter,....

on the ashtray, and above the stereo. I'm worried that the aluminum will look odd with the wood.

Do they make aluminum replacements for these as well?

Default How much of a PITA is that install?

I've been considering doing it since I got my car last July but I remember reading somewhere that it really just sucks to do.

Default The big dash piece sucks, but the doors are...

...relatively straight-forward if you're even semi-mechanically enclined. I still haven't installed the largest dash piece.
