bluedevils1433 · 07-31-2009, 06:06 PM

Still haven't decided if im gonna shave my s4 completely, already shaved the grill because it looks a lot better without s4 badge..now for the trunk i like the way it looks but i think im gonna take it off too so im just left with the rings for the sleeper look

just seeing what some people think.

Nah leave the badge, debadging is for for the A4 kids who wish they had a S4

bluedevils1433 · 07-31-2009, 09:02 PM

G.T. · 08-07-2009, 04:08 PM

1. take s4 badge off trunk
2. leave the rings on the trunk for sure
3. replace oem hood grill with oem rs4 grill

Don't do that!

Why can't people be proud of their cars. An A4 with S4 badging is no different than an S4 debadged with an RS4 grill.

Trust me. I had a B5 S4. Traded it in for my WRX. Love the car and be proud of it. Don't try to pose it as something it's not. I left my badges on. It's all part of the prestige...

What?! Negative, S4 bumpers and side skirts on a A4 are for a4 kids who wish they had a S4.

Keep the S4 badge. My buddies is debadged from the previous owner and it looks dumb.

bluedevils1433 · 08-13-2009, 04:08 PM

wow i see that got out of hand a little haha...i appreciate all of your opinions tho guys, im probably going to keep the trunk badge and go with a b5 rs4 grill WITHOUT the rs4 badge haha.

a little.

you can always be way different and do a custom grill. yeah, that would be cool. get a mesh you really like and then powdercoat it. heck, you can even plasti dip it. LOL.

gl with deciding and be sure to post pics!!!

bluedevils1433 · 09-16-2009, 08:49 PM

decided on the rs4 grill..and to keep the trunk badge, dont like the look of them without it..ill put some pics up when i get a chance, now i just need some wheels!

Jon@WrightAgency · 09-16-2009, 08:55 PM

I didnt read ANY of the posts in this thread so sorry if im missing something, but i think it would look DOPE just rings in the front on the grill and rings on the trunk. Thats it. Show your AUDI pride and thats it. The model stuff is mainly for the US market anyways....in Germany where the car is native, it wouldnt have those badges. People know S4's when they see them. Super cool that way and real clean looking too.

Just my opinion.

bluedevils1433 · 09-16-2009, 09:03 PM

yea ive thought the same thing many times.. idk i have seem some without the trunk badge and it looks pretty bad IMO too naked..others look really good, maybe i will at some point.

bluedevils1433 · 01-14-2010, 06:49 PM

hey guys, finally decided to take off the trunk badge...looks awesome! so glad i did it..just simple and so much cleaner looking, so now i have the rs4 grill withoutttt rs4 badge haha, and just the rings on the back..oh and a dope sticker on the back windshield
