    New upgrades

    Finally got my upgrades completed for now. Upgraded wheels and tires. Borla XR-1 Exhaust. Painted calipers. Upgraded the rotors and brakes. I'm torn right now on switching out my grille to the Osir carbon fiber grill since the RS grille is so popular.

    Looks great! Where did you get your RS5 grille with the aluminum surround? I went USP because they had the plastic cover that covers the bumper rail without having to paint it. But they only offered it in all black.

    I need the secret to add my S5 emblem on RS5 grille. I already have it on the car and completely forgot to transfer it first. Id hate to glue it, i looked up how most do it but seems like it has to be off the car the bumper.

    I will agree with you that the RS5 grille is a bit played out, but i am the only S5 in my area so i just go with it for now i guess. I just HATED the stock faux chrome one. BO OEM grille is nice but with filler plate its almost $700


    What are your wheels specs & tires size?

    Those BC forged wheels are just about the perfect look for the B8 S5
