Big thanks to my guys at TWCompetition. Big thanks the vendors here as well Alex@Europrice, has answered any and all questions and delivered on everything in a very timely manner. Achtuning for the work they've done so far, top notch guys that want to do it right or not at all. Ferdi at Cete for his off hours answering of different topics. Sean@Tag as well.
Last modding experience was from the VQ (Nissan/Infiniti) days. This platform reminds me of that, multiple vehicles with the same basic core, parts available from the homeland that are highly sought after.
A few weeks into ownership, lowered with H&R module after VAGCOM limit wasn't enough. H&R module recently sold to another forum member, it's a good module especially getting it second hand.

Glacier on black, prestige, drivers assist, black optic, sport. Got a Friends And Family deal which was killer, 300.00 over invoice and the car was already on a lot so no waiting.

Some HREs from a forum member here. P40SC, 21x9.5 +35, Toyo 255/30-21. Wheels were on an A6 with Stasis brakes, unfortunately they didn't clear the OEM S6 brakes. A 3mm spacer would have worked but running a 5mm in the front only rub the liner on dip and turn.

CF mirrors, seller said they are used OEM. They are not overlayed CF and the weave is perfect so I'll assume they are legit.

OEM RS grille from Alex@Europrice, top is OEM, bottom is knock off that came with my bumper. When you compare the 2 in hand the difference is fairly noticeable, the price difference is incredibly different so value is up to the buyer.

Got in on the GB for the euro tails, the sweeping function is legit.
Some Eurocode goodies during their summer sale. Sways and endlinks Alu Kreuz.


Did a fair bit of research on the various RS style bumpers. Visually if you look at the side flaps and center bar some of the copies out there, they are using RS7 style components. Side flaps being full hoops and not just flaps, center bar on the RSy is not as straight as the real RS6.
Imported a RS style bumper from http://www.xenonz.co.uk/ It made it over from the UK fairly quickly, the shipper sent it as freight so had to do some importing process with UPS to pay the duties. Fitment was decent overall, bodyshop is in Seattle. I'm originally from SoCal so it would have been done better if I was back there.

Worthwhile change if you like to not look like the car next to you, yes the S6 is not very common but I prefer to be a little different.



At this point the car still only had 1200 miles on it. Got the ACC realigned at the dealer and did the 5k service since 5k will take me a long time to get to and I wanted the car checked into the dealer records before the go fast fun. Roc Euro intake kit had been sitting in the box since June.
Cete active suspension module.


RS turbos from Alex@Europrice

Also received Euro headlights from Alex@Europrice
