Default Need Help regarding RS4 upper inlets. Missing one....

Hey guys, I purchased my RS4 kit a while back and the company i puchased from actualy sent me two passenger side upper inlets instead of a passenger side and a driver side. I have slowly been piecing my car back together and the motor is ready to go in the car. The only thing left is the Driver upper inlet. As this is my only car, i can not wait 4 weeks for the inlet to come in and then be shipped to me. If there is anyone or any other shops that have these in stock, would you be willing to trade a driver side upper for a pasenger side upper? Does anyone else have any ther suggestions.

thanks

Have the company you bought the kit from break up another kit to get you the correct part asap.

Default You can do a quick fix! Cut your original one shorter. you have the correct lowers?

You can swap it out when you get it later... 10 min.

Default wonderfull thank you. Is RS4 upper inlet the same for both pass, and driver?

couldnt i just cut the bracket and re-weld it to the other side of the inlet to make it bolt up. I was loking at it, measuring it, and it looks like it could work. I have access to weld machine. thanks for the help Johnny
