Default Help: Trying to cheat on my BMW loyalty for handsome RS4

Hi all,
First I'm thinking about buying RS4 next week.
It's 2008 and has about 22k miles. dark gray with carbon fiber interior.
But it seems like Audi is not popular as BMW when it comes to modifying (maybe it's only because RS4 is so rare).

I like to get: a. Euro steering wheel with airbag. b. Black front grill.e c. V1 hardwire with nice dash mount like every Audi owner's. d. brake pads (if it's dusty as BMW's) as starter right after I get a RS4.

So.. my question is:
a. where to buy euro steering wheel and how much do I need to pay? (and will it work plug & play or any DIY write-up anywhere? if not, how much usually cost to install properly?)

b. where can I buy it and how much?

c. V1, who sells those nice dash trim and DIY anywhere? (Usually this is most common DIY so I didn't expect to have hard time finding one )

d. Are those stock dusty as BMW's? Then what do you recommend?

Maybe I'm asking very simple questions that everyone know but please don't be too harsh to me and help me to cheat my loved BMWs.

Thanks Mr. Audis in advance!

oh... and what do you do when you have to have a dog in the backseats?
I currently have genuine BMW fitted reatseat covers.

But it seems like Audi doesn't make a lot of accessories like BMW.

Here are a few links to get you started.

For the Euro Steering Wheel, talk to Alex@Europrice. He'll take care of you. He'll send you install instructions along with the steering wheel. I got both the wheel and the airbag from him for a pretty decent price. The main thing with the Euro Steering Wheel is finding someone with a VAG-COM computer to change a few of the codes to match up with the European Steering Wheel. Certain dealerships can do it, but they'll definitely charge you for it.

I haven't done the V1 Radar yet, so I would check with some of the folks in the links above and get more info. from them.

You can check further back to see if there have been any threads posted previously about brake pads. I thought I remembered seeing one a few months ago. Maybe some of the other guys can chime in on this matter.

Good luck!
