I agree that RS4 is the best available alternative, but...
I'm wondering if there would be interest in a non-RS4 rip off. Is everyone here perfectly happy with the RS4? Maybe i'll make something i like for me, and a reasonable RS4 copy for the rest of you.
also, the side gills certainly aren't necessary for good air flow. Some designer thought the looked good

i think they would create a low pressure system and help suck air out of the vents
i think the main reason that no one wants a"body kit" on the car other than oem is because most people here like subtle. i just think its the wrong crowd. especially if you are trying to mass produce, its not about what you like, its about what everyone else likes.

It's actually a 3D model
It's easy to build, change, and refine (that model only took a couple hours)
I can have the shape CNC milled out of high density foam, then make a fiberglass mold off of that. Once that's done, I can make as many copies as I want, and sell them WAY cheaper than an OEM RS4.

I think it's got potential
I like the overall look, bit the lip needs a tweak. I'd like to see 2 versions - 1 with no lip and 1 with a full width lip -maybe a bit smaller ( the lip that is ).
Cool project!
