Caractere's B8 Audi A4 body kit is manufactured from OEM-grade PU-RIM. That means the material it uses is similar to what Audi uses for original Audi A4 parts - not a bad thing at all.

What's in The Caractere Audi A4 Styling Kit?
The complete Caractere Body Kit - including Caractere's exhaust mufflers - is featured on this page. If you're only interested in the individual Caractere components, click on the links below to be taken to a separate page for the respective body kit components.
Here's what you'll find included in the complete Caractere styling kit:
Caractere Front Bumper
Replaces the Audi factory front spoiler and includes the distinctive RS-styled mesh surrounding the original fog lights. It can be ordered with or without the headlight washer option, and accommodates the factory Audi A4, A4 S line or S4 grilles.
Caractere Side Skirts
Stylishly aggressive side skirts form an important styling link between the front spoiler and the Caractere rear valance.
Caractere Trunk Spoiler (A4 Sedan)
One-piece glued-on styling piece that visually balances the rear end once the front and side skirts go on. This trunk spoiler will fit the Audi A4 with or without S line, as well as the B8 Audi S4.
Caractere Tailgate Spoiler (Avant)
Like the trunk spoiler for the sedan, the roof spoiler for the Audi A4 Avant also provides an important element of visual balance for the bold styling of the front and side elements of the Caractere kit.
Caractere Exhaust Valance
Mounts on the existing bumper spoiler, with separate variants for the Audi A4 and the Audi A4 S line / Audi S4. There are two exhaust valance variants:
- with an opening on the left for twin OEM exhaust tips - for the 4-cylinder engines (1.8TFSI, 2.0TFSI, 2.0TDI)
- with openings on left and right for single OEM exhaust tips - for the 6-cylinder engines (2.7TDI, 3.0TDI, 3.2V6)
A third variant (shown in the photos below) is designed exclusively for the Caractere exhaust mufflers with their distinctive Caractere tailpipes.
Caractere Badges
for both front and rear of the car, these badges provide an "RS" identity to your Audi A4. They're included in the complete Caractere kit.
Caractere Exhaust Mufflers
High quality stainless steel mufflers manufactured by Remus for Caractere. Include the trademark Caractere trapezoidal exhaust tips.
Audi Owner's View
This kit from Caractere is popular for good reason. Caractere's design theme for the B8 A4 brings a touch of aggressiveness to the otherwise heavyset A4 body and makes the best of the factory bodywork to create a stylish sports executive.
The Caractere CW1 wheels are simply stunning - especially in graphite matt polish - and should not be left out if you're considering a complete makeover. Don't leave out Caractere's exhaust mufflers too, as they are DEKRA-approved and bring great visual balance to the A4's otherwise heavy rear end.
