They arrived this morning, around 8.30 - not bad when you think they were still in Leeds at 4.30 yesterday. Craig made me promise to post pics to show off his workmanship.

Firstly, Craig you did say you spend more time packing them than painting them and here's the proof:

Several minutes later (as they say on Top Gear).

Then about ten minutes after that:

Top class painting, Craig. You could never guess that a week ago, these were adorning your red beauty.

Do these come on any Diesel model as standard? I thought they were an s4 thing? They do look well though!
 
No, they come on all S-Line models, regardless of engine. The standard blades on SE models are much flatter and flusher, with no flare. The S4 blade is more flared still.

Do the S4 door blades stick out more? Any one got a pic of them?
 
nice one jdp1962.
Now You just need an S-line front bumper for a perfect look ;)

Hahah! But that would mean changing the grill, the foglight inserts, and replacing the DRLs, which are tailored to the SE. I'm happy with it as it, especially with the Cupra R splitter nestling underneath it.

Yes they do. That's why my previous thread says they are more flared than the S-line blades.

Have a look at Craig's recent thread showing the finished work on his red A4. It is now fitted with S4 blades

Glad your happy mate!
I'm pleased they didn't get damaged in transit, that was my main concern.
They match aswell, which is always a bonus :)

Looking good mate :)
 
if you have any luck with some S4 blades any time, Craig, I expect a message :D
