A pic of the tails would help people, you could even try photoshopping them on and A6 to get a visual aid. _____________________________ (in reply to Joeski) Post #: 4

All this will make it look complete. _____________________________ Drive carefully! Remember, it's not only a car that can be recalled by it's maker. (in reply to xbimmer) Post #: 10

My A6 is silver and as soon as I put them on it made a world of a difference. Matches the area surrounding my license plate frame. (in reply to Nocturnal_A62.7) Post #: 11
