    Re: rs4 look

    Very subjective thing, search around for pictures. For me, I'd choose all black just because I hate Audi's corporate fish mouth front, and all black kind of hides that. If you're a fan of it, silver would certainly accent it. You might also like the brushed aluminum look of the real RS4 grill, I certainly do.

    I believe you can get all of these at ECS tuning here:
    http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/...bcategory=Body

    They also have the FK grill if you're a fan. Alternatively, you should be able to source all of this at your local Audi dealer, and depending on your relationship with them, you might be able to ask for a discount, not have to pay extra for shipping, and likely receive it quickly.

    If your car is black get the blackout grille.
    You can get both the filler plate and grille as a package deal on ECStuning.com

    is there a difference with silver and brushed aluminium?
    and should i get the filler plate painted to match the color of my car?

    silver often means "chrome look", whereas brushed aluminum is, well, brushed. see the link I enclosed above on ECS's site for some idea. Or search for RS4 mirrors, or go look at an RS4 ideally. If your car is black, you could get the phantom black painted one and it would look pretty sweet, otherwise most of the black out pieces are just flat black plastic, personally I think painted looks better.

    I'll have to disagree. With black you'd want the brushed aluminum one, very classy IMO. But in the end it's all a matter of preference so get what you like. :)

    Re: rs4 look

    Is your car blacked out or do you have the chrome trim around your windows?
    It all depends on what your plan is for your ride.
    Sporty, night rider or a classy ride with some contrast.

    Good luck with what ever you chose.

    the only crome left on my car is around the windows and the audi emblem, everything else is black and carbon fiber.

    Isn't that basically all the chrome that comes on the car (trim & logos)?
    I hope you didn't have chrome wheels too
