Thank you very much! One of the main reasons I am aiming for the Audi version is because of the fit and finish. I may add the carbon mirror caps as well later down the line. I think it will look great with Nevarra!

I'm having both items port-installed for $1595...that pricing for TAG is insane!

I hated the shiny mirror caps and the CF spoiler should look great against Daytona Gray paint...and will match my Audi OEM CF license plate frame.

ECS Tuning has some add on carbon pieces for the S4. I am hoping it wont be long until the S5 ones come along.

They already have the carbon mirror caps for the S5 (ECS). They are about half the price vs Tag's but I am unsure about quality.

Too late for it to get added at the port.Order is locked. Hopefully, they can do a good job at the dealer when it arrives.

I thought it was glued on. My e92 M3 had the CF spoiler glued on.

Here are my pics of the Carbon Fiber Spoiler and Mirrors. To my knowledge, the spoiler is glued on.

The design needs pieces on the sides, or a design that doesnt look like its tacked on.... I'm not trying to crap on it, because its a tasteful carbon piece, but the way the back lines work it seems like there should be 3 pieces total.

Update on this. I moved forward with adding the carbon spoiler to my order. It seems like Audi has dropped their carbon supplier due to quality issues. No timeframe on when a new carbon supplier will be added. Doesn't look like you can get any carbon accessories for the time being.
