I really can't stand the ****-weak looking front bumpers of the S4. The air intakes should be more aggressive and larger and deeper like the current RS4. Even the Audi sports-kit for the B6 A4 would be good, but the joint lines for the A4 is different from the one piece of the new S4. Therefore the sports kit will not be compatible with the S4. Damn!!!

This is really putting me off the S4. I reckon Audi should look at the M3 and ask themselves why it looks so great!

Does ne1 agree??

Where are you seeing a difference?

Default I like the Sportec as well as the Oettinger . The lower grills actually match. (What a concept!)

Default The Oettinger is a little too aggressive for me

I really like the Caractere, aggressive, but not TWIN DESERT EAGLE IN YOUR FACE aggressive.

Nice wheels also; anyone know what they are?

I'd get the Audi factory aero kit, aftermarket just can't compare in terms of fit and finish.

The one you put as a Reiger is actually an Oettinger...

Default ummm yes they can....

the Audi kit is not even made by Audi, Votex makes the kit and the kit requires that you put the kit over the existing body panels... so the pieces stick out about 2-3 mms... the other kits, fits flush with the body and some are made from urethane.... very high quality...
