Default Bodykit or not pics please.

Hey - Im looking into bodykits a little, however I know some cars do look better without them- i.e. 97-99 eclipse, with just lowering and rims. I love the RS4 kit but im looking for pics of b5 A4's without them, just rims/matching lowers/tint/grill ect. whatever it takes to sell me on the stock look.

I chose to paint my lowers instead of doing a body kit because it just looks cleaner imo, but RS4 kits do look sweet. Just don't get some stupid kit with air dams everywhere.

sell me guys. I know Ive seen sweet looking black b5's w/o bodykits, But so far the silver ones ive seen even with just lowers painted still look...well, not as good as thekitt'dones. Im trying to find one that may look similar to mine because i can think of a few places the money spent on a kitcould go instead.. even tho money is not such an issue. I have a00 silver a4, getting black 18s w/ chrome lip. 2" drop, kamei grill, 30% tint, tinted tail lights. BTW, I am upgrading my turbo so please dont make that a reason why not to get the kit.

I agree...no kit. Just paint your lowers. IMO the stock Audi looks clean as hell and there aren't many body kits that will do it justice.

If you have to do something, why not get the S4 front, sides and rear?

finally someone with some good taste. i appreciate people that enjoy the audi the way it looks from the factory...you just don't get any cleaner than oem parts. all third party body kits just look like crap in comparison.

Thank you...

GODSPEED...trust me I know how long it takes to find a good S4 body upgrade, but they are out there...and when you find one, it will be worth it.
