New looks for an old model

Have a previous generation Audi A8 and tired of getting a lack of respect when you pull up in your once prestigious ride? If so, perhaps the latest styling package from RDX Racedesign might be up your alley.

Featuring a new front bumper with S6 daytime running lights and Audi’s new signature single frame grille, your old A8 can appear several years younger to less trained eyes. With the addition of lower front air intake grilles, which are available in four different designs, the whole front end takes on a new more aggressive appearance. Out back a new bumper gives the rear a muscular look by offering grille inserts and easy paintability for the rear diffuser section, especially if you choose to paint it in a contrasting color.

The complete Audi A8 D2 package can be bought individually, or as a collection for a discounted price of €925 in Germany.

In the front end, a RDX RACEDESIGN front bumper spoiler (EUR 599) – intended for usage with a current single-frame grille (also available from RDX RACEDESIGN for EUR 149) – including a bonnet cowl, makes for a "mean look” in the style of the current model, giving others a real shock in the rear view mirror when the facelifted old A8 appears. The much sportier and more individual look is further enhanced by original Audi S6 daytime running lights, which can be fitted left and right in the air intakes. For the air intakes, RDX RACEDESIGN also offers additional grille attachments. Customers can choose between four different grille designs ("silver" design included free of charge). "Turbo-Style” side skirts (batch price EUR 129.95) provide for a lower appearance and a uniform progression of the front spoiler design. In the rear end a RDX RACEDESIGN rear bumper (EUR 299) provides for an especially muscular appearance. It is delivered upon request with four kinds of grille attachments (available here in "silver" design free of charge). The diffuser section is likewise perfect for contrast colour painting. The rear bumper is delivered without exhaust tailpipe extensions. Openings can be cut as desired to one’s own exhaust systems and perfectly adapted to individual needs.

The complete RDX RACEDESIGN aerodynamic kit for the Audi A8 D2 is available for a price of EUR 925 (plus grille and optional S6 daytime runnning lights). A price advantage of over EUR 100!

All RDX RACEDESIGN components display excellent custom-fitting, good paintability, and are of course TÜV tested and certified.

Classic bull-shit look! This is the same as trying to put the new grille on the old TT! THE SAME! If you drive this you are saying: I have an old car; I fake myself!

But the stock D2 platform A8 is a genuinely attractive car. It is beautifully proportioned and, I think, very elegant.

Yeah, the stock D2 A8 is a beautiful car, and I wouldn't mind owning one. Old? Hell no. But this tuning makes it look like a freak.

I disagree with people saying the stock D2 looks dated or something, it is really one of the best looking limos ever, somehow timeless design, but destroying it in this way is something I can't understand. Besids I'm starting to be sick of those single-frame grilles, and I recently prefer their older desings.

The first Audi A8 was a very elegant car. It's unneccessary to upgrade the design in my opinion. Ecspecially the grille and the hood don't fit the nice line of it. It remembers me to the current A3. The bumper might be ok, but with the original grille for example. And the rearbumper is to fat. For a highend modification the trunkhood has to be modified with a lip like the Audi RS4 or so. All in all a cheap modification. To bad, that it even looks that cheap

I agree, the original A8 is beautiful and this just ruins it... way to lose respect, not gain it
