    Audi Friends....

    I've just taken delivery of a new A4 Avant in red with the 'Black Styling Pack'.

    Although the car looks great I think I prefer chrome roof bars rather than the blackened ones which come with the pack.

    So I wondered if it's possible to purchase a chrome pair and have them fitted without much agro.

    Does anyone have any ideas on the availabiliy, fitting costs, etc..?

    Cheers

    Not much luck with this post..!

    Has anyone had experience of removing/changing the factory fit roof bars on a B8 Avant?

    Cheers

    I'm afraid not. The only thing I've ever seen about roof bars is some guys in the states using a black tape to cover the chrome rails.

    I think that you will find that its a "remove the head lining job".

    "Roof lining off job".... Now that's beginning to worry me a bit...!

    Perhaps the black bars aren't so bad after all...!

    Anyone got any chrome gaffer tape?!
