custom rear valence DIY

[Audi-ence]

This is sweet. I'm gonna give this a shot sometime too.

Audi-ence can you post up the right part number when you pick it up?

Yeah sure, but I'm sure both the "B" and "H" will work. The "M" part has the wider cut-outs for the dual S4 exhaust tips.....that's the only difference.

how much was it???

Very nice DIY mod

Audi has 2 Part #
8E0-807-521-B
8E0-807-521-H

which one did you use ?

It looks like this can be fixed with thin rubber edging (like found on side skirts)
What do you think?

I've been looking for that rubber edging where did u find that??

[Tomek6]

Thanks.

So there is no difference between the other 2? What's the point in having 2 part numbers?

[Audi-ence]

Thanks
how much did it cost ???

This pisses me off!

I called three different dealers, and got three different prices!

Dealer 1- $145.44 CDN.
Dealer 2- $155.36 CDN.
Dealer 3- $132.00 CDN.

I may have to do some more shopping around. Post up the prices in your area. Let's see who can get it for the lowest price (new).


A name for this mod? .....hmmm, how about "BEEZ bumper mod"?

[Tomek6]

Thats ridiculous for a piece of unpainted plastic. I got my Cupra R lip for $100 shipped from Europe. Still cheaper than S4 bumper though

http://www.aboveallmotorwerks.com/Pr...807521B_S.aspx not sure if thats cheaper but it was the first hit i got when looking for price..

[bmags88]

ordered mine from the dealer today. $115. Picking it up Tuesday.

[xsbaiz]

The dealers are thinking "what going on we are selling these rear valence like crazy and its not even s line"
a good name for this mod would be "poor man's rear s4 mod"

[BEESIX]

^^Rolff!, quit spending so much on that valence guys, the reason why i decided to do this was because it was super cheap, i spent 30 or 40 bucks for mine on the classifieds

[Rodaz]

I get this part (s-line) for 20€, so its no problem :-)

Well props on finding a great deal but, considering there 0 B7 non s-line rear valences out there on the classifides my only other option would be to rip one off of someones car and since I'm not a peice of shit I'll go and spend the extra money which really isn't a whole lot.

[Rodaz]

Hi Adil, don´t you fixed it with glue or adhesive tape?

I will try to modify the B6 rear bumber in the edge-areas a little bit with a hot-air-gun, to make it more even to match the B7 part, i will report how it worked

[Audi-ence]

Anyone else try this mod yet?

I got lazy yesterday and didn't pick mine up, I'll probably go for it on Monday....seems easy enough.

Still waiting to see some pics from a side angle. Although it doesn't look like there's much of a gap there, I'd still like to see it so that I can come up with a game plan to get it as close to the bumper as possible.

Heat gun is always usefull.

[B6Lovin]

Heat gun is always usefull.

or a little glazing compound to round out that little "dip" in our rears. all depends on the look you're going for

2day i modified the 8E0807521B :-D and also a little the B6 bumber with a heatgun (I paid 39 Euro)

Everything was fine - then i tried to fix it with 2-side adhesive tape and screws - no chance (no fixation)

[BEESIX]

My mufflers have 4" tips ;), I will take pics and post them up tomarrow for the sides, I currently don't have access to my car its at the shop

[nein-reis]

Some one back out of doing this mod and sell me your real valence for 40.00

Accepting PM's, thanks.

[JMRQuattro]

Ok so what i want to know is can a B7 RS4 rear valence be purchased separately like this and possibly be fitted to our rear bumper? Cause that would be sick. And instead of this:


it would look like this:


Except for on the back of a B6 of course. But I like the look of that rear valence the best.


Or possibly the B7 S4 DTM rear valence like this one:


I much prefer the look of those 2 over the B6 S4, and the one being used in this DIY. If it's possible to DIY either of these rear valences, consider it done

[ivoryman50]

the only problem with those valences is that you have a much more prominent oval cutout than the one being used and the s4 rear. the gap on the sides on the round muffler might look a little weird.....maybe not though.

[JMRQuattro]

yeah, but i have 4" tips like Adil so it would atleast fill out the holes a little, and i could always get quad exhaust.
