Hi,

Im interested in fitting this lower lip for my b6 and when i phoned the company up to find out the dimensions they turned around and said that they were not allowed to give out these dimensions.

Well anyway i was wondering whether anyone has fitted this and could give me the height on this lip just so that i know how much clearance i will have between the bottom of the lip to the ground.

Thank You.

By "lower lip" do you mean bumper?

hi, yes the front bumper is split into two halves. the top half with the recess for the reg plate and the lower half holding the fogs.

I don't know where it's from but it's either by Reiger or it's the same as the bumper from one of the Reiger kits.

I haven't fitted an after-market bumper but I have fitted mine with S-Line bumpers and they're fairly easy to swap over. Some of the bolts holding the front bumper on are a bit fiddly and really hard to get to but the back bumper is ****.

Out of interest.. How much are they asking for it?

I agree, they tend to look quite tacky with the mesh and the non OEM parts rarely fit flush. Although, saying that, I have seen one really nice B6 with a Reiger kit on it but that was after a good few Łk had been spent on it; full respray etc. So not a cheap option.

Have to agree with Bez with the 'cheap and nasty' quote. IMO Audi's kits are ample for these cars. Anything aftermarket looks like the gear you see on Corsa's and Saxos. The Audi is intended to look understated and it does it well.

Again just my opinion ;)

Agree with Mr Marco,

Why don't you just buy the S-line kit for the car??
