A4 boot lip?

[KudoWarrior]

What are peoples thoughts on boot lips and if "pro" what would be your suggestion?

Cheers

Will let you know tomorrow when I fit one

I have a Caractere boot spoiler which I quite like.
There is also Enlaes which looks exceptionally good on the A4.

+1, lets have a look mate! Also, where did you buy it from?

Just the std eBay one, for £30 I'd thought I'd try it, had one on my B7 so hopefully it'll go well. Didn't want anything too big or to pay too much

Interested to see how it looks. Most from ebay are just stuck on, I wouldn't mind something more solid that feels like it's more a part of the car.
Are there any OEM ones?

Think it suited the B7 better tbh, the lip on the boot lid seems more rounded on this, so you couldn't really get it flush with the lip as it would overhang slightly

 

[razza1]

On a darker car it wouldn't be as noticeable so you may get away with a slight overhang.
The colour is very slightly darker as well depending on the light it catches.
Will see how it grows on me over the coming weeks

Actually looks quite decent on.
Mines black so it could work. Will look into some OEM ones for now but it's an option. Cheers buddy.

My B7 was black and it did look better on it, blended better, could be the colour or the shape...

I'm curious now. According to the current brochure, the S4 saloon has, amongst its extra standard equipment over the SE models, an "integrated boot-lid spoiler". This "integrated boot-lid spoiler isn't listed anywhere else in the brochure, only in the standard external equipment on the S4 saloon. Yet, as far as I can tell, the profile of the boot lid upper edge is exactly the same on the S4 as it is on all A4s.

Am I missing something?

 

[razza1]

It's the same as S-line, so has a more pronounced lip to it vs the SE

Ta. I shall obviously have to peer more closely.

I got one from ebay Germany, same one as BrennanTdi on here. Really good quality and suits the car nicely. Got it fitted today...

I like this one! How much was it and do they paint it for you?
Have you got a link?

 

[razza1]

It's grown on me already

The advert shows 2 different fits.
One sits on top of the bootlid, the other wraps over it ???????

I quite like the one that wraps around it instead of sits on top. Looks more part of the car than just being stuck on.

Mine with OEM Dynamic spoiler

 

[GeoffDunk]

OEM Dynamic spoiler def looks the best IMHO, if I had a saloon thats the one I'd fit.

Do you have a 3/4 rear view photo Macdoon?

 

[Macdoon]

Here's a couple of different angles

[GeoffDunk]

Looks good, that would be a no brainer for me.

 

[KudoWarrior]

Looks awesome mate. Where did you get yours from?

 

[Macdoon]

Mate, I'm really excited about getting this now I've seen how slick it looks on yours.
Is the eBay version essentially the same as the one you just linked?

The guy I bought it from had a few, all OEM, think I paid £135

Draco2700 was the ebayer iirc

 

[razza1]

Sticks out too far in my mind

Def interested. Cheers mate will check it out when I get in.

I was thinking the same

 

[razza1]

I prefer the other one that blends better with the lip of the boot but was too much to buy and get painted

 

[viceroy]

Sorry about the pic quality (and dirty car) but this is the Caractere.

Got a pic of that one?
