Mine looks the same as the previous posted image. A really clean, neat installation and a sturdy hitch. It's nifty and unobtrusive. And the car pulls a small trailer with ease.

OK so a couple people have emailed me asking for pics without the rack so they can see the cut better. Even after a few months I still hadn't taken a close look, but now that I have it appears they could have cut less of the bumper fascia where it curves upward. But then you have to be down on hands and knees to see the cut, so I could really care less.

ScottTburg - did they install the hitch all the way forward so that no cut was needed? It would be appreciated by many if you could post pics of your car so people could see how you got away without cutting it at all.

ScottTburg, I'd also like to know how they were able to mount it so not as much facia had to be trimmed.

Anyone think it would be feasible to use a 4-bike bike rack with this hitch setup? Too many?

looking at evdog's pictures, it looks like they cut off way more than needed. It appears that only the flat bottom of the fascia needed to be trimmed (which is what it looks like they did in hesaputz's pictures) and not the rounded, painted part.

Default trailer Wiring

Looking for help on the wiring. I installed the Curt hitch on my 2006 A3, but no wiring kit was included. Any help on which wiring kit I need, or even better a DIY would be awesome. Thanks!
