I have OEM-RS4 bumper which mean fitment shouldnt' be that much of a problem, I hope.

Please offer advice if you've done this before. TIA

Default Mine came w/o long hose or long hard pipe, had to ghetto-rig...

and seller was a dick about it too. Of course I didn't realize this until my front end was all over the garage.
Still worth the upgrade, your turbos will be thanking you come summertime.

Default Think? The metal trimming is the easy part. The PITA is trimming the bumper

which I'm unclear if needed when using an RS4 bumper.

Default Make sure all hoses, when you bring them home fill them with water

if no water leaks out your good, if the seller put a screwdriver thru one, then well you will know immediately and then request your money back.

you want 2 IC's, 4 Hoses, 4 Hose Clamps and if it's an APR kit, the horn relocation pieces.

Then go to APR's website (www.goapr.com) and download their RS4 IC install guide

Default APR only includes 4 hose clamps for the larger diameter RS4 IC piping...

and you're supposed to use your stock clamps for the smaller diameter side of the hose kit.

Default I was thinking about DPs, but Lemieux talked some sense into me and said...

The same thing as you. I'ust hope the install is not a PITA. I have the RS4 bumper, so hopefully it will go well.
