LLTeK announced today
that the New R6 Styling Program for Audi's USA and Canada A6 4B (1998>2001)
is set for release. The design is specifically targeted for Audi's
"pre-facelift" A6 model enthusiasts. A version of the front will be
available for the facelift version (2002>) at a later date. The styling
program is for the narrow body A6. This Aero design will fit the A6 with the
2.8 and 2.7T motors for the USA model only. For other countries there is a
model for other motors which LLTeK will supply. To determine if your car is
before facelift versus facelift, look at the upper center grill. The facelift
version has square lower corners.
To install the front bumper it will be necessary to purchase a modified OEM set
of Audi's European impact bar supports from LLTeK - the support bars will be
used to replace the current set. The North American impact bar is also subject
to a small modification but is re-used with a small modification at each end.
Installation is straightforward and similar to the installation of the narrow
body RS4 front bumper. The material is fiberglass. The OEM foglights in the
original setup will not fit the R6 corner mounts and openings. For this reason,
LLTeK will be able to offer 3 lighting upgrade options, one of which will be
real HID Xenon utilizing Phillips D2 ballast systems. The other options consist
of a choice between 5th Generation blue-tint glass fog or driving lights. When
the bumper is ordered with LLTeK's MatchPaint option, LLTeK pre-installs the
lights for free.
The R6 front bumper is available as part of LLTeK's MatchPaint program also.
When paint is an option, LLTeK will pre-install all 3 lower grills. With the
paint option a second color (black) is provided for the accents that surround
the fog and air intake cover.
At a later date, LLTeK expects to offer a set of side sills and a design for
the rear of the car. LLTEK worked with the manufacturer very closely to develop
a special fitting program for USA specification cars. The manufacturer makes a
special modification in Germany for LLTEK plus LLTeK makes a final modification
to the impact bar supports to complete the supplied changes. Without these
changes the bumper cannot be installed. The front look of the bumper is the
short profile.
LLTeK will also offer 2 additional options. For a small charge, LLTeK will
delete the European license indentation (only with paint option). Also a lower
under splitter is available also with a paint option. The product is oversized
and ships by truck only in a special extra strong protective box. For more
