So I was doing some forum browsing recently and I came upon a thread where a guy showed off his b7.

here (http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/audi-s4-a4-a4-cab-b7-chassis/175258-my-remade-audi-a4-b7-rs-edition.html)

Now I'm not really a fan of the flashy orange but I think he did a great job on his car. The bumper is what really caught my eye though. I've never seen any other b7 with this bumper and I thought it was a cool concept. So, after further research, I found the Swedish site where he bought it.

Now I was planning on contacting them to see if they could ship one unit to the US as a "special order" but I think shipping costs would be outrageous for an entire bumper. Also, they state that they will only ship within Scandinavia. I did find the part on ebay a few days later for about $590 but I think I procrastinated on the order and now the price is up to $1300. My question is are there any of you who know where I could find this part in the US for cheaper or should I wait until the new year to see if the ebay price goes down.

Look around on eBay, I've seen them sold for $400-500 for several months now

if I'm doing the conversion right these headlights are only $400 dollars.

Eh, it's not bad nor good, but something different. I personally would've stayed away from all that orange; especially on the Audi rings.

Angel eyes are for Bimmers, not for Audis.

Don't look too bad or BMW to me...

The red one pulls them off IMO. Either way I believe those pics show OEM bixenons with custom halo LEDs.

Aftermarket "angel eyes" are terrible quality. The ones on the site you posted look no different than the ones I've seen on eBay and Amazon for $199 pair. You will definitely get what you pay for.

I got those exact same headlights off ebay brand new for $199 shipped and they lasted maybe about 3-6 months before the mounting bracket that holds the projecter in place snapped as it was made of plastic. They are DEPO. IMO just go with OEM Bi-Xenon. You can get a good pair for about $600 shipped.
