Default 2009 A4 2.0T Exhaust tips?

Just picked up my A4 this Friday and I love the car! One thing that really bugs me though are the tail pipes. Why didn't we get the chrome tips like the 3.2 did?

I found these on ebay. Has anyone bought from this seller before? Any comments? Is $65 fair for 2 tips?

hmm glad to see that the exhausts are separated symmetrically on the avant. I saw a promo video where they were paired on the left side similar to the 2.0T sedan.

1.8 Saloon and Avant has twin tailpipes on the left
2.0 Avant, tail pipe either side
2.0 Saloon twin pipes on the left

Weird setup with the 2.0T!

3.0 and 3.2 have one tail pipe eitherside.

Only the S Sline has the chrom tips in the UK at least

Default Exhaust on Avant

I test drove a US premium plus avant and both tips were on the left. I very much prefer the look of the euro s line avants like this (pic shows tips split and different plastic filler panel in-between)...

I've seen on another forum that these are going for $100, so $65+shipping sounds good.

Just wanted to report back. Got them and I'm very happy with them. Fit very nicely and look like something actually belongs on my Audi.

Post pics if you can – before and after would rock.
