yeah i will, it might be a week or two before its done since they probably won't order stuff til friday. but i will throw up a new thread with a lot of pics!

hopefully they will let me just pay the difference from a S4 bumper to the Rieger RS4 bumper, if so i will get the whole kit. so my car should look simular to the pic below only without the big wing and my car is black.

(but your getting paid so who the f cares right? ha)

Sorry to hear about your loss, but glad you made out well on the insurance.

A similar instance happened to me a few months ago. I still have yet to fix the bumper, but I have my heart set on the same body kit. Let us know how the install goes and definitely post some pics.

Hellz yeah!

I was going to install mine myself, but heard that body kits can be a real pain in the @$$ to make look like they belong there. Not sure if this one (being that it's made specifically for our cars) will be an exception to that.

Let me know how much I should expect to spend on installation and painting if I decide not to do it myself.

Thanks

UPDATE:

so i was planning on getting the entire Rieger body kit instead of the S4 setup, but i would have to pay about $600-700 in extra labor and paint along with the difference between the cost of the rieger front bumper and a4 bumper.

i was fine with that until i got my bonus check from work that was $800 shy of what they said it was going to be... so now i am forced to make my car to go back to a stock look with an s4 front bumper . i don't mind the stock look, it just sucks when u kind of have to down grade from what u had.

i did do some other stuff instead though, i bought new front leather seats that have no rips in them and the heat seaters work as well. i changed the tail light bottom covers from the chrome to black (the color of my car). and ive ordered some awe tuning decals. i also am putting on the Rieger back window roof spoiler.

so some changes, but my will be back to more of a stock look. will get pics up as soon as i get it back!

Too bad about the Rieger kit. At least you still get to upgrade though. I still want to see those pics.
