    V10 side skirts

    Considering V10 side skirts. Anyone have good pics of V8 and V10 side shots to see what a difference there really is (aesthetically)?? Preferably in white if possible.

    Also, who can I expect to get best pricing from on a set of these?
    Thanks!

    ** See post # 8 if interested in ordering a pair of these. We need 1 more person to get a discounted price.

    Regarding pricing I found them cheapest from Audi. should come to about $600 for the parts, then find a good bodyshop the spray them for you.

    Thanks Mark! They do look nice, remind me of side skirts on my Maserati, although not as dramatic. On the Maserati, they are actually known as "surfboards). lol

    *Just called local Audi dealer. They want $890.00 plus tax. So very close to 1k!! Hope someone can do better than that...

    My V10 comes from the factory with those skirts and it makes the car look very aggressive. I love them!

    Re: V10 side skirts

    I may have already quoted one or more of you recently on these, had a couple quote requests on these recently. I am happy to give a discount if 3+ people are looking to do them at once. My regular retail is:

    R8 V10 Side Skirts - $790.00 pair
    (Retail - $961.50)

    The $600 range on these mentioned is likely at a foreign parts source. It's cost prohibitive to ship these out of Europe in almost all cases because of their size. I see two people interested already, anyone else want to jump in? Also if people want to ship together to one location shipping costs to go down per buyer.

    Cheers,
    Alexander van Gerbig

    Definitely worth doing. I love how they've enhanced the appearance of my V8. Go for it.

    We have a bunch of photos here, but on a black car. Alex is right about the shipping, as it can be pretty crazy.
