rs2 underheadlight trims

[CliveH]

excuse my ignorance, but how do these differ from the S2 ones?

[Acidburn]

I was waiting for this question

they are angled slightly to go with the shape of the rs2 bumper/headlights, if you look at pictures of rs2 slightly at an angle you will be able to see.

Or wait till jas posts up his pictures as he had some side by side

so the headlights are different too?

i do have a pair but i got them as a spare as i have modified mine to work as an air pocket and i wanted to have a spare in case i changed my mind...didnt know they were obsolete as well damn audi..

[Acidburn]

No they are the same its just the trims that are slightly different (and possibly the rs2 bumper it has a raised section under the trims, I ain't checked both mine yet to confirm if its just the rs2 or both)

Here's what cracks me up... Audi and/or Porsche went to all that effort of redesigning a dippy trim under the headlight and then made a special tool/mould with which to make them for I dunno approx 1000 cars... And then they make the part obsolete. That tool must be sitting in a warehouse somewhere. So stupid and short-sighted.

True, I used to do injection moulding and got trained up in it and the amount of tools we had lying around etc was unreal. cost of £5000 upwards for a decent small one.

bump - still after a pair of these, will offer a good price

[CliveH]

don't Rieger make a replica item?

[Acidburn]

Not for that bit afaik

[CliveH]

Think you're right.

Here : http://www.tuning.co.uk/rieger/ then go Audi, then 80 Saloon B4, second item down "headlamp spoilers" appears to refer to the bits which run along the inside edge and the top of the headlamps, not a stock part AFAIK?
