    hidding front wipers

    Some time ago I found a site (unfortunenlty dint bookmarked it) where someone made a mod on teh front wipers so they where a bit lower then usual, making them a bit hidden under engine bay door.
    anyone here ever hear about that kind of mod on the audi 80? s2 or rs2?
    I remember the car was red...

            Doug, do you have part #s? Where can I source these aero wipers? I already know that they are expensive as they are standard on Mercedes Benz Also, I would need wipers for a left hand drive configuration.

              I don't have part no.s to hand - and they would be differnet for left hand drive. I got mine as a kit of parts from www.vagparts.com - I am sure they can help you out for left hand drive cars. I am sure some of our friends from mainland europe have done this - so they should have part no.s.

                          I do believe Doug has them on the rear as well, if he would be so kind to post pics of that.

                          In fact i'm sure the original thread is knocking about with it them on.........

                              Another mod goes on the "to buy" list!
                              @ Doug- suggest you re-photoshop your photos if you know what I mean
                              @ Doug again, your front fogs are much "clearer" than mine, are they standard?
                              @ Doug again again, I love the look on those 19"
