If I had to choose, I'd personally go with the S4 bumper, skirts, and rear (or painted stock).

Just make sure you don't stick any S4 badges on there.

If it were me, I would mix and match. RS4 grille, front bumper, and S4 side skirts. I wish there was an easy way to put the S4 smoked chrome window trim on a 1.8T.

you have an a4. theres no denying it. dont try to church up your car to make it look faster than it is. use money for performance upgrades, or save for an s4. that way, your car not only looks like an s4, but is as fast as one too.

I neither have the time, money or experience to go widebody so if I did go with the "RS4 look" it would be the reiger replicas and redline I know its an A4 im not trying to make it look faster I just want something that looks stylish that will turn a few heads (refer to my quote below)
