Does the RS5 engine cover come with carbon fiber accents only with one of the carbon packages? I don't see it specifically included in the description of the packages on the Audi website.
This pic below is from one of the dealership's website, on a car with a carbon package and, shows an engine cover that looks different from the one Rondo posted above. Ignoring the carbon part, I don't see the red accents in Rondo's pic - unless its just a bad angle. Also, looks like it says TFSI below the rings in Rondo's pic, while this one doesn't?
Hey MRA5SB, I don’t have the carbon package on my car. You do have to get the carbon package to get the carbon engine cover. I do have the red accent on the cover, it’s just a bad angle

It comes with the dynamic plus package. The Black Optic Carbon package does not include this. Not worth the price in my opinion.

Thanks for clarifying guys. Who would have thought of looking at something other than a carbon package for a carbon part LOL. Such a strange addition to the D+ package.
Thanks guys for the positive comments. The grille is badgless, no rings and comes from xenonzuk. The rings are normal trunk size rings from audi in chrome but I really consider black ones. The splitter is carbon fiber made by jc sportlines and I color matched the side edges. They make a rear carbon diffuser which I will install later on.
Do you mind me asking what u paid for the Front carbon lip ? on JC website it does not have the pricing.... thanks
@mtquattro I really like those rings on the hood! When I take delivery of my RS5 Sportback I may get an extra set of the black rings and do the same. The black rings in the grill are hidden with the Black Optics package and this is a great way to fix that. I think the black rings on the hood of that Nardo color will look amazing.

So you would have two sets of rings on the front? Because I am pretty sure that the ringless grille is only available in a5/s5 format at the moment. Might be helpfull to do a little photoshop an see how it will look with dual set of rings.

I would only have the one set of rings. You bring up a good point though. I didn't realize I couldn't remove the rings from the grill of the RS5 Sportback. Looks like no bueno for me.
