Welcome to the forums.

Nice looking car with nice turbo setup!

Want to send me a facelift European trunk for the B5? I'll be your best friend! LOL. Kidding!

Cover for the luggage compartment?

I really don't know what they call it in Europe. Perhaps boot space?

I was mostly kidding but I should hit you up if I decide getting one from Germany! Thanks for the great offer.

It looks pretty cheap on eBay but probably the shipping to the US is going to be killer!
I'm contemplating if I really want to go with the European trunk as we have different license plate in US. It will look slightly off with the US plate.

LOL.

Really? I didn't know people in Germany wanted to have US body parts. That's really funny! It somehow doesn't make sense though because Audis originated from Germany. I guess people are just looking for something different.

It's some kind of craze of enthusiasts in the US to have OEM German/European version of body parts. The all clear headlights are the more common European mods here.
