Just received further news this morning from
Seidl-tunning...http://www.seidl-tuning.de/katalog.htm
<http://www.seidl-tuning.de/katalog.htm>

They seem to have a better product than SGI from the information received to
date, but I will wait for SGI feedback first...

BTW, it's amazing how I can now get info because of a potential group buy
where before most manufactures couldn't be bothered answering ! (power in
numbers I guess).

I'm currently in communications with them to see what they have to offer and
I'm waiting for further answers to questions, Pictures, group prices, etc.
If they send me any pictures I'll post on the web site.

Ok, here's the Seidl-tunning Question and Answer period...

*Note: Product made with Fiberglass reinforced plastic (GFK) (*S-heads, is
that good?)

1) Do your units fit North American Bumpers? If not could they be modified
to fit?

Answer: Yes, our bumpers for C4 are complete bumpers including bumper
carrier
	and they should fit also onto american cars. The only problem could
	be that american cars often have bigger bumper carriers - perhaps
	you will have to modify them. But it should be no problem.

2) Is the unit an add-on (cut existing bumper) or is it complete? (can it be
made complete?)

Answer:	Our bumpers are complete - not cut!  The original bumper must be
replaced.

3) Are the all the units the same for the S4 and S6?

Answer: S4 and S6 are the same.

4) Can you offer fabrication in any other material than Fiberglass? (Carbon
Fiber, ABS Plastic, PURIM, etc.?)

Answer: 	No, we have only GFK - Fibreglass.

5) Would you be interested in doing a production run for 20 units?

Answer: Please tell us what you want to have!? Perhaps we can help you.


 Body Kits:

 1) Do you offer a body kit?

Answer:	Yes for Audi C4/S4 and S6 also for Audi A6 C4 and Audi 100:

Audi A6 C4 and Audi 100
	.......................
	00057601 Frontspoiler inkl. Stoßstangenträger

	00057501 Frontspoiler inkl. Stoßstangenträger
	00057551 Satz Alugitter für Frontspoiler

3) Do your body kits fit all C4 models? (the side skirts, rear valence, and
front air dam).

Answer: 	Yes they fit all C4 models.

4) What material are the body kits made from?

Answer:	GFK - Fibreglass


That's it... have a good S-weekend.

Cheers, /James.

	S-Heads,

	Sorry for the delay in giving you updates, here's the latest news:

	LLTEK called me today (finally...), they said they are definitely
interested
	in developing some styling options. I'm supposed to leave my car
with them
	for a few days in about two weeks time so they can evaluate styling
options
	and decide what they will move forward with. I'll let you know how
that
	turns out (I hope they have one of their nice cars to give me as a
loaner
	;-)

	The owner said they are interested in exploring the following
options:

	1)	They want to see if a Reiger or Zender Front lip Air dam
will fit
	somehow.
	2)	Double lip spoiler
	3)	Rear Wing
	4)	HID Kit (plus they want to attempt to offer Euro's and maybe
clear
	corners)
	5)	Pedal set. (they will see what fits from their products)
	6)	Eyebrows (probably straight ones only)
	7)	He said he can get Kamei grills, and knows a local
manufacturer that
	are making parts for Ferrari that they just started working with and
will
	ask if they will make the lower grills or they might do them
themselves
	(they've done it before they said).

	One thing to note, they said they have changed their policy and will
now
	offer all styling options in two price categories, painted or
unpainted.

	On other news...

	Front Mesh Sport Grill and/or matching lower Grill Mesh for bumper
intake!
	Note: 18 People are interested in this option.

	I contacted grill craft http://www.grillcraft.com/
<http://www.grillcraft.com/>
	<http://www.grillcraft.com/ <http://www.grillcraft.com/> >  to see
if they where interested to make the
	grills, they're response was the following: "We would love to start
a line
	of Audi grilles but at this time we are behind on our current line
possibly
	when our design staff catches up but I would not expect to see any
Audi
	Products til early 2003". Since LLTEK answered me today, there is a
good
	chance they will come through on this one.


	RS2 Style Front Bumper (add-on or otherwise):
	Note: 19 People are interested in this option.

	Zender: No longer has molds to produce more and says there
distributors do
	not have stock (according to their records)
	AutoSport Werks: Working on a design, but will not release further
info,
	except they hope to have it ready within a year.
	SGI: Currently being contacted, will post when I get feedback.

	Hood: Carbon Fibre or Fibreglass
	Note: 11 People are interested in this option.

	This option is being investigated by Trevor F. and Brian B., Trevor
found
	one manufacture: "I just talked to him to get an idea, he said about
	1400-1800 for tooling and approx. 400 per hood. At quantity 5
approx. 700
	each copy. On the outside with 9 people that would only be $200
each.  It
	would only be another $400 per copy then, for quantity of 9."

	That's all the news I have!

	Here are the latest stats:

	1)	RS2 Style Front Bumper: 19 People
	2)	Sport Mesh Grill and/or a matching lower Grill Mesh for
bumper
	intake: 18 People
	3)	SGI Body Kit (Front Air dam, Side skirts, and rear Valence):
13
	People
	4)	HID Xenon  Kit: 12 People
	5)	Carbon Fiber or Fiberglass Hood: 11 People
	6)	Custom Rear Wing: 9 People
	7)	Front Lip Spoilers: 8 People
	8)	Re-styled Front Air Dam: 6 People

	Hey like I said before, this is not a one man show here... if you
think you
	can help by contacting suppliers in your area, etc. go for it !
	Thanks to Trevor F. and Brian B. for taking the initiative on the CF
hood
	option.

	Cheers, /James.
