  • B6 S4 to B7 RS4 Widebody

    Here is another project that we have going at work (JMI Motoring). Since I see how you guys are enjoying the two other project threads, I figured I would throw this one up too. This B6 S4 came to the shop in pretty poor shape. Someone had vandalized the car pretty badly. The objective of this conversion was to keep it as OE looking as possible and here is a list of parts that have been used.

    B7 rs4 Front Bumper
    B7 rs4 Radiator Support
    B7 rs4 Headlights
    B7 rs4 Hood
    B7 rs4 front fenders
    B7 rs4 front and rear doors
    B7 rs4 sideskirts
    B7 rs4 door blades
    B7 rs4 door moldings
    B7 rs4 rear quarters
    B7 rs4 rear inner wheel housings
    B7 rs4 rear quarter glass
    B7 rs4 trunk
    B7 rs4 tailights
    B7 rs4 rear bumper

    There are a ton other misc B7 rs4 mounting brackets, tabs, clips, wheel liners and plastics and misc moldings around the windows and everthing too. We are getting very close to getting this car done. The car is painted and we have gotten about 75% of the final assembly done. Have a few parts we are waiting on and then I can finish putting the rest of the car back together and get this car done. Enjoy

    (sorry I am using the owners pictures I am to lazy to upload all of mine lol)

                Wow, good work, and I kind of dig the color.

                Why all the money into this though rather than him just buying a B7 and parting the B6 out?

                  haha that's true...to be honest I like the looks of the B6 better, but the widebody is gonna be nuts. I've been following this build over in Achtuning's thread on Vortex...looks good.

                    The work done looks great!


                    However I feel it was kind of a waste of money.

                      I dig the B6 a little more, think you should've just gone custom widebody. But this is gonna look nuts too..!

                        holy hell that must have been expensive. I agree though, id rather just buy an rs4

                            i am guessing its not all being paid out of pocket. im sure insurance is paying for some of the repairs.
