Not that I get a dime out of this but I am just passing this on as I have seen three RS6 belly pans and each on is torn the hell up from :

1. techs not knowing about the two fasteners in each wheel well.
2. agro driving and hitting where the I/C lumps are.
3. near surfboard disaster at 80mph (no, I didn't hit it, but extremely close)

Notice that the material for the wheel well connections is no longer there.

That's not for our cars, it's for the A6 4.2. It will fit our car, but you lose the intercooler exit ducts.

Then what the hell is it doing in RS6 section of ECS?!?!?! :(
I guess I should have cross refer'd it against ETKA first before posting. Duh!

4b3863821c is $324... ouch!

EDIT: and look at the link path from ECS, it has PEDAL in it?!?!? Something is seriously F@#$ed up over there...
EDITX2: Thanks Skribe, maybe I should just get some S5 rims and call it even?

It's ECS. They're not exactly Masters of Details.

Going to be in Huntington Beach next week. Probably not close enough to San D to buy you a beer? I swear, I will buy somebody on this board a beer when I'm in their city at some point.

Beer hell. Come to Phoenix and buy me a round of golf and I will get the beer after.

S5 rims what? Rocking fresh powdercoat on the OEM 9 spokes for winter with Mich ICE X2s. Rolling up to the summer house in the dead of winter through a foot of snow in an unplowed driveway? No problem.

Looks good and looks fun in the snow!
BTW, did you do the Sportec cooling mod to the belly pan?

PM me when you get on the west coast.

Let me know how the Raven trip works - I have not been there (yet) but am planning on it soon. I would join you guys but I am heading back East next week for business ( St Louis and DC). BTW - it was 39 today this morning. For us here that is COLD!

I grew up in Huntington Beach.. let us know when you are in town, I will meet up. I only live about 20 minutes away. We can go harass Raven as well, and I will drink all the beer you can pour :)

This is the part number for OEM RS6 belly pan?

Genuine Audi refers to it as "Dampening"

TIA

Yes. Audi speak for parts is odd.

Are our cars supposed to have the rear belly pan that looks to go under the tranny? Mine doesn't have this. I would actually think you wouldn't want it as it would keep heat around the trans.

Thanks Bill & Ingrid (Genuine Audi) - stealer wanted $598 for belly pan - but hey, that includes the 5 minutes that it would take them to put it on.

Wow - that is not cheap! Does the 4b3863821c pan come with hardware too?
