Not bad at all. Did you take some photos of the installation? How much did the whole thing run you?
HAd thought about this awhile... i thought you could mount them higher where the natural bumper recess was - ref you pics ( made to fit i'd say then finish with a bumper repair compound to finish flush.)It would mean building those areas up to match the LED thickness then blending at the bottom and all dependant on LED thickness. The cost on a set of these from the dealer was cheep - i believe something like $180 per side without the wiring harness??) Definately worth trying.
Great job but each light looks like it halos abit due to the backing or lack of and the restriction in airflow when some owners pay $7k to ditch the fog lights and add more cooling worries me.
Don't take that the wrong way mate... any mod takes ball on our rides... the elec. wiring always worries me terribly with a short to fry the comp. Looks like you pulled that off without a hitch. really nice job...
whats next???
Best regards..

quality doesn't come in a twist off.
They look great!I too was thinking of having my fabricator put my LED's in the recessed area of the bumper but it involves cutting the renforcement bar
I may try it since yours looks sooo good

Check out the ECU/TCU sticky thread. Aside from subtle differences, I bet all the ECU remaps feel pretty similar from the driver's seat. Just get one that fits what you're looking for. I took a LOT of time waiting/researching, but finally decided on the Revo becausenxt i wana remap it but not sure who to use and if to get both gearbox and engine ecu remapd or just engine.. any ideas?
a) the tuner lives a few miles away and is a very reputable guy and uses Revo stuff in his own Audi.
b) The system is totally selectable- in less than a minute you can switch among valet mode, stock mode, different grades of fuel-premium to race, anti-theft, etc. without any problems.
c) it's inexpensive (like $1K or so including the selectable switching box)
d) it's flashed to your ECU through the OBD II port (no need to open up the ECU and send anything anywhere and wait).
So far I found it to be great, no complaints at all, and a few others have this ECU also. Others have MTM, GIAC, O.CT, APR, DNA, etc, and most like their setups as well. I think most claim arounf the same BHP, like 510-520 at the crank on premium fuel, more on race fuel. What ever one you go with, it's like night and day. Remember the magical all-powerful feeling when you first opened it up? After awhile, though, it becomes kind of mundane? Well, when you chip it, it's like falling in love all over again. Then there's always race fuel...
I'm getting my TCU done now by Hoppen Motorsports while the car's being serviced. Unfortunately, the TCU has to be physically removed for this (no flashing available as far as I know) and sent to them. I'll post the results in the above sticky when I get it back. I'm mainly doing this for the quicker shifting, since I drive in Tip mode 99% of the time, and many said that the gear changes are noticeably quicker after the TCU mod. I never knew I had a problem until someone brought it up, and then it was always there (or at least my perception that it was slow). I guess I'll see. Hopefully sooner rather than later. I can't stand going this long without my RS6 fix! I'm almost pulling my hair out, and I bet I've been being very annoying around the house, lately.
Nice lights BTW! I like them a LOT more than I thought I would when I read the title. Really sharp and OEM-looking!
hi mate tnx i lov the lights realy change the look at the front, so where r revo based? did it include the gearbox ecu remap?Nice lights BTW! I like them a LOT more than I thought I would when I read the title. Really sharp and OEM-looking!
Revo I believe are based in Switzerland (not sure), but have distributors in the US and elsewhere. See http://www.revotechnik.com/ for details and enter your info for a local distributor. No, the Revo flash is ECU only. The TCU has to be physically removed and sent for remapping. I sent mine to HoppenMotorSports, a US MTM distributor. They did the work and sent it back already via 2 day air. Will write in the ECU/TCU sticky when I pick up my car (still waiting on DRC parts). There are a few other threads that talk about how to remove it if you want to remove the TCU yourself (located below passenger side floorpanel on US models). Your car will be out of commission while awaiting the shipping, which is why I waited until I had to get some work done.
tnx mate
