Default Don't BID, I just looked at the part numbers and those are for the cabrio. They definitely look

too big for the A4. Sorry, I had glanced over the action without paying too much attention to it the first time.

Default pretty much...

they're located in a different place, at the back of the housing instead of underneath, and they do look thicker that the stock ones... but i'm not sure if that means the stock one wouldn't first fit in the back and second work...
mine came complete...

btw, i just got back from the bodyshop and i think they got it this time... they did give a try to Dupont paint, but that didn't work... so they went back to Sandox and this time they managed to preserve the metalic flakes and get the right shade of denim w/o having it changing too much depending on the angles... so we're going with that and hopefully the properties of the paint won't change once applied to the bumpers... knocking on woods...

Default I think angle has a lot to due with the color... my car was on the lift today - at eye level..

..just about everything matched well.

Default absolutely...

and that's why i'm quite happy this time...
we placed all the test cardboards all over the lowers on the car and looked at them from different angles... the one we ended-up picking remained pretty much in "sink" (sp) with the rest of the car as the colour was darkening or lighting up...
again let's just hope the paint keeps the same effect once applied to the bumpers...

Default I'm probably going to eBay the Bi-xenon. There is a match on eBay.de right now. Greg is going to

take the regular Ecode Xenon.
