    Adaptive suspension

    No idea on the ‘cost’ aspect, but I specced it on my 2018 S5 and find it really useful - comfort mode is great for everyday commutes and dynamic stiffens things up nicely went you want to push on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    I want the RS5 Grill on S5

    I think he did 12 months ago when I got mine done as I had to specify trim / rings colour etc when ordering - why not drop him a message (I’m sure his details are somewhere else on this thread)? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    De Chrome yes or No . S5 Cab

    Yeah, and I would have done if I could have got a local recommendation - but then decided once I’d got rid of the awful (IMHO) S5 grille I’m quite happy with how it looks on Mythos black Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    De Chrome yes or No . S5 Cab

    I tried de-chroming my Mythos black S5 and gave up. Plastidip was really tricky to use without drips and runs and I don’t think it would have lasted that well even if I’d succeeded. Sold the spare cans on eBay. I then attempted 3M vinyl wrap and gave up after about 3 hours and not making it...

    INSURANCE

    Why not just put your details into a comparison website - I suspect that’ll give you and accurate ballpark figure to start with. If you need a car / reg then find a similar one to the one you’re thinking of getting on Autotrader and put those details in Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    iPhone 13.1 update

    Had exactly the same thing - fix is .... on your iPhone delete the car from the Bluetooth menu and then re-pair it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    I want the RS5 Grill on S5

    However, the new S5 (diesel) has the RS style hex grille though according the spy shots and press shots I’ve seen so far. Personally don’t see anything wrong with it as long as you don’t try to badge a car up like something it’s not. I’d never even lightly modified any previous car and did my...

    I want the RS5 Grill on S5

    Must be killing you? I was lucky that mine arrived the day before I went away and it was in for a respray and fitting while I was away so was fully done when I got back a week later [emoji847] Since then, I’ve tried vinyl wrapping the chrome window trim (that didn’t go too well as some of the...

    I want the RS5 Grill on S5

    I’ve never before modded a car - always preferred the OEM look - but this is well worth it. ‘S’ with the standard grille doesn’t look anything special - with this RS style one it does - just wish I’d gone Daytona now (didn’t because IMHO it didn’t match the grille and chrome trim (which I think...

    I want the RS5 Grill on S5

    Quite possibly - if I’d done it myself I might have tried covering the radiator and plasti-dipping the foam in front of it. Unfortunately I’m away on holiday while they do it and as all contact has been via email. TBH, looking at other photos of the grille installed it doesn’t look too bad...

    I want the RS5 Grill on S5

    Nope - no cutting or adapting needed at all. The company installing it emailed a number of photos as the foam impact protector is pretty visible through the grille so they’ve moved the number plate up a little from that photo just to cover it a little more - but I suspected that’d be the case...

    Almost done! I get it back at the weekend (just waiting for the bonnet respray) but already the RS5 style bumper has transformed the look! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    New 2020 S5 Availability

    It’s been released in most other markets so can’t be long - although as a diesel I’d be surprised if it sells that well IMHO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
