I don't know if it will make the "kit" look bad. It may make your car look bad.

It's all about the time and $$ you put into doing it right. Get the kit attached and smooth, then have it sprayed to match color, and it shouldn't look bad.

If you just primer them grey or black, and then screw them onto your car, they will look terrible.

Do it right and it will look great. And you'll need a set of S5 moldings to match the rest of the kit.

people put kits on with s5 trim and leave the s4 on or remove it all together and it looks gay and stupid. If you are putting the money into the car by buying a kit, do it right.


Also have some rims with a decent offiset and size or you are going to have a car with a kit that looks wayyyyyy tooo big with little *** wheels that sit too far into the fender wells.

there are always S5 moldings for sale in the classifieds, or you could go to a local scrap yard and try to get lucky.
