That's the best-looking rear bumper there is, in my opinion. [up]

Nice job!
But I don´t like the silver painted rear valence and now you need bigger tips [cool]

"rear end face lift" ...wouldn't that be an "ass lift"? just sayin'.

glad to see a nice B7 from Toronto.... there aren't many around.
The rear looks a lot more aggressive now. Good taste. What deck lid spoiler is that?

are those 18's?
i have come to the conclusion . wheels with NO lip - 18's look great. WITH lip - must get 19's

what happend to it? left side diagonal downward from the license plate - a white spot
Something is not flowing right about it, maybe get some spacers in the rear? Between the DTM rear and the S4 blades, I think the wheels are getting drowned out by the bodywork. Dunno, just my $0.02us.

The rear is a completely different color than the rest of the car. You might want to talk to your body shop about that.

+1 from those pics the color doesn't even look close.

Color does look a tad off but i know sometimes my bumpers look that way in pictures too when they are spot on.
Otherwise it hink its looks good, so do the painted reflectors!

i'm loving it...makes the car look so much more aggressive
needs some bigger tips and i would not have painted that rear valence. not really feeling the CF either. bumper looks good
i like that there are no rear reflectors on the bumper though.

WRT the rear valance, I painted it the way it is to make it look different than a stock DTM rear valance.
Bigger tips are next on the list.

I bought 4 10mm spacers from a fellow member, but the damn things don’t fit into my RS4 reps. (not VMR or alloys-r-us, they are made by replica wheels Canada)

Thanks bud. You should come out to the Toronto Audi meet this Thursday, where you will see more nice looking cars.
The spoiler is carbon fiber from eBay.

Love the rear bumper! wish they had this for the B6

Looks good, but you need some 100mm tips to fill it out.
Have yet to see a close to 100% paintjob on a silver car.........My last car was a silver A6 and it came to a point where I didn't want to do any changes to it that involved a paintjob. Seems like it can't be done.....
How is the downforce with that thing ;)

Did Audi not have a DTM version of the B6 A4?

As soon as I finish this post, I will be heading to my local exhaust shop for those tips.
Silver is one of the hardest colors to match. Even from the factory the colors don’t match 100%. The silver paint looks different on plastic(bumper) than metal (fender, quarter panel…)
Down force? LOL.

It was an insurance job, some idiot clipped the corner of my bumper which broke all the tabs that hold it in place. The Shop told me it cost $1600 Canadian just for the bumper and had to be special ordered from Germany by the local Audi stealership.

looks so sick! I love it. It will look so good once you get a nice exhaust system in there.

Thanks!
I will wait until my stock exhaust starts rotting before I put on a whole new system. For now I have some magna flow chrome tips in there, that I got installed today. Will post pics soon.

Body shop did not match the color right for the bumper, imo, although, the bumper itself matches the car great!

Yea I got them with the sides, but they don't line up even close enough to look good. So I ripped tem off, lol.

I'm truly shocked so many people like the rear bumper, looks like something you'd see on a early 90s Honda, but it doesn't matter what I think, and seems I'm a minority...

It is pretty ricer-ish. Just because it's audi doesn't mean it's ok. Same reason a lot of people don't put the B5 front RS4 bumper on the B5 S4's.
