    Its pretty common on tarmac rally cars, or road racing I'm lust talking about AUX lights.

    I think above the bumper would look silly, infront of the middle lower grill would look alright IMO.

    what you would want to get is driving lights, they shine straight forward, most of the round lights at stores are fog lights that focus the light wide.

    a cheap alternative is to replace the H7's in your car with 100W hellas (about $12 a bulb), but be warned, the extra electrical demand may melt the wiring harness, and a piggy back lighting circuit may set off the burnt out bulb light.
    the B5 S4 is like the mafia... there is only one way out!

    Brush guard? Only if you're a hillbilly and RAISE your car....

    The driving lights though, if done correctly might not be bad.

    I don't know what you guys are hatin on. It's not like the S4 is the princess of all that cannot get dirty.

    I will at some point weld up a beefy skid plate (put the panzer in it's place) and form of a push/brush guard. Put some mudflaps and skid plates on SEASONALLY, and go have some fun. You don't know your car until you get 100% comfortable sliding it around at >45mph sideways in the snow. For the real drivers, 70+mph is scary, at least for me it is on public roads.

    It has AWD, turbo/s and hopefully a manual trans, for the love of all that's holy drive the damn thing.
    I really want to make it look like a legit rally car + some sort of front end reinforcement/pushbar just to piss you guys off.

    Here's some non-S4, but B5 motivation.

    Yea, but more reliable and without ever needing to pull the engine to replace turbos.

    AllRoads motivate me, in more than one way.
