Nick's B8 S4 Widebody Project

[Technick]

Hey Guys, any update on the widebody kit roll out? Super interested

Not a huge amount of progress, TBH.
Sunk so much into making sure the diffusers were designed and manufactured to OEM quality (well, arguably, slightly beyond, in places) that it has left a substantial hole in the R&D budget!

What's the current ETA on the honeycomb foglight grilles and the wide body kit? I have been following this development for a quite a while.

No further forward, I'm afraid. In fact, closing down the business tomorrow! Any future work will just be more as a hobby...

Would you be willing to give me the plans you were using for the fenders? I really like them and am very interested in what you did to accomplish the build. If the shipping isn't ridiculous, I would buy a set of those foglight grilles if you have them laying around.

Drop me a PM and we can discuss options

Thanks Max.
Yeah, sure! Just have to figure out the easiest way to do so, now that the Photobucket library isn't any use...

Here's another video, in the meantime:

You want quad tips or two big ovals like on the RSs?

I unfortunately don't have a good source for either but can keep an eye out.

I feel like the RS tips would definitely fit this particular build the best

That ship sailed a long time ago!
I opted for larger quad tips (as per video in previous post) - the intention being to retain the S4 trademark (i.e. quad) tips and not make it look like it's trying to be an RS model (hence why no honeycomb grills also).
In short, it's an S4 widebody (or 'widearch', to be precise) rather than an RS4 imitation

I see your reasoning and it makes sense

Thanks. No, it's static on KW coilovers. Other suspension mods include CR-15 and H&R swaybars/anti-roll bars.

Nice. It must handle as good as it looks
