JE Design from Germany, an Audi tuning specialist, displayed a comprehensive customizing suite for the new Audi A8 at the 2006 Dubai Motor Show.

A front spoiler with enlarged air inlets and additional side vents lend the Audi an impressive front appearance besides generating greater downforce and, as such, enhanced driving stability. Side sills with air intakes per set enhance air supply in the wheel arches and make the A8 look lower. The rear view is adorned by a rear spoiler on the boot lid, which produces greater downforce on the rear axle, plus a rear valance attachment with diffuser. Moreover, JE Design offers cartridges for double headlights consisting of fog lamps and upper beam headlights for the front bumper.

A completely new development in the form of a chrome-plated 4-pipe rear silencer system with a tailpipe diameter of 4 inches produces a sporty V8 sound and also has a performance-enhancing effect.

The standard Audi A8 packs 335 bhp. After JE Design engineers install a Kompressor-Kit and modify the engine management, the V8's power increases to 500 bhp. The car accelerates to 60 mph over 1.5 seconds faster than the standard Audi A8 - it only needs 4.8 seconds. The top speed is about 188 mph.

That would look gangsta in black

 

Or charcoal silver...

 

That Is Fawking Sawahottttt

 

I dig it...but the dual foglights is too AMGish.

 

I wish these tuners would just leave the S-Class and A8 alone. I have yet to like any of the tuner offerings in any of these threads where some company essentially rices out one of these flagship sedans.

 

ugh freakin nasty

 

I like everything but the rear

 

Meh, the kit looks cheap.

 

They made the rear look more VW'ish than Audi,.................. ,........dont like it.

 

I would have said damn this thing is hot but........... I just left the thread titled "2006 Hamann Lamborghini Gallardo SE ". Kind of ruins it for you.

 

I dont like it.. the A8 is far too classy for this.

 

The kit looks horrible. Why can't they just leave it well enough alone.

 

I love the A8, I'm pretty meh on the kit though...

 

I'm with a bunch of you on this one. They need to leave these alone when it comes to the body kits and stupid fog lights. Now the power mods and maybe a tighter suspension...well, those are fine by me.

 

i think it looks pretty good.

 

i think it looks good. but i think i prefer stock a8. especially, if it's the s8...

 

Not bad...

 

ghetto fabulous

 

May I ask why do they ever need Dual Foglight on a car? I see that on Mercedes but this is the first time on A8.

 

Yeah, just a little bump so maybe I can get answer to why would you need dual foglight...

 

Its actually a Brabus sorta signature, but same cars.

And the kit is definetely not my taste.
