Default deval kit is crap.

some people can make them work but they just dont come good enough to take them out of the box, paint them, and put them on. Its cheaper plastic than OEM and different lines. Some colors work better, but its harder to blend the paint. Im partial becuase I wouldnt put anything on an Audi besides OEM and ABT. I would say if you want that RS4 look go DTM

Default "The fitment is a little off but I could deal with it" --> It looks like a f'ing cheap Civic

kit. That is HORRIBLE.

Default thanks for the feedback... one more question

i will DEFINITELY NOT buy one of these kits... that picture really does make me cringe at how ugly it can make it... i probably will go with DTM

my question now is does the DTM bumper have a fog light fitment or would i lose my fog lights?

Default No fitment afaik. You'd need to have one fab'd probably. If you ditch the fogs, you'll have

to overcome the bulb-out warning on the DIS.

Default Re: thanks for the feedback... one more question

you can definitely keep the fogs, just search on audizine "dtm bumper fogs" a handful of people have done it on there. Im still debating if/how im planning on it when the bumper shows up. If you dont keep them it requires a simple resistor to trick the ecu to thinking the fogs are there. you can find these at radioshack or a local hobby store, and if your kinda handy you can do it yourself.
