The only person I've ever seen put an eBay body kit on a B5 and have it work is a guy on the 'zine by the name of birdman12. He's also a body guy and did a custom wide body to go with it.

Yeh i read the thread its just a euro bumper that fits both. Not an S4 replica bumper. I just really wanted that S4 look heh. I checked certifits website but they didn't have pics of this "euro bumper" so i have no idea what it looks like gonna google a bit i think.

Yeh not a body man here id be able to have a body man put these bumpers on for me and fab them to fit properly but i'd rather not if it could take hours lol then the bill just keeps climbing.

Mean time other things that are more important firstly being a turbo timer. The whole waiting to turn the car off thing wore off fast. Gonna sift through the for sale ads and see whats going on.

Thanks for the input guys appreciate it.

If you stay out of boost for the last few miles of your trip, you can get away with waiting for a minute or two after you park. That's all the longer I ever wait.

PM me your address and you can have my old APR/VDO boost gauge, you'd only need to get a hose kit from ECS to hook it up. Came out of my 01 A4 and my S4 has a Podi column gauge.

this is the gauge kit: Audi B5 A4 Quattro 1.8T > Interior > Gauges > ES#2167986 Vent Pod Boost Gauge Kit - IN110KT

you'd need this to hook it up: Audi B5 A4 Quattro 1.8T > Interior > Gauges > ES#2562292 Boost Gauge Hardware Kit - ECS998002CB plus a short bit of red/black elec wire for power to the led

He can pay for shipping and he can have it. I took it out of my A4 before the insurance company took it away when it was totalled which is why I have no plumbing, just the pod and gauge.
