Can someone post some pix of their RS4 front on? Looking at hood-grill gap
This picture I took from a low angle is really bothering me. It may just be the angle (I keep forgetting to check the other pix at home) but it could also be real. Anyway, the nose is coming off tomorrow to replace a headlight unit so I want to know if the gap problem is real so that they can possibly fix it.
Can I have some front end pix? Preferably from at or below grill level to simulate the angle of the shot.
Better yet, does anyone have a measurement or some rough estimate of their gap size?

Here's a few of mine:

Just went outside to double check it
And I think its just the angle of the shot and the shadow accentuating it. I really don't see how the gap could be reduced further since the joint between the nose and the sidepanels is tight. Theres no way to move the nose up higher and the hood-grill gap is the same as the side panel headlight gap (above the sidemarkers). So I think its just an optical illusion on a photograph that I really used to like (until now, heh).
I still want to see other pix

The gap is a little too large IMO. Read my CC mod for instructions on how to adjust.

Or the dealer can do this for you easily. Compare with this one.
