Im not completely sold. But quite like the idea of the RS4 style arches.

Don't like the front, I think the hole underneath the headlights are a little too big but having said that the side and especially the wide guards are sexy as hell!

The front 'intakes' are the same as the standard RS3.

Unless im going mad it doesnt look like the intakes are modified, just the sides of the front bumper to match the flared guards.

You'd have to have the wheel/tyre/ride height combo perfectly integrated with that kit for it to work or it will look terrible.

I think that kit detracts from the clean style of the car myself and if you would be putting all that effort into body kit and paint anyway, why not instead do some custom pumped factory guards? A killer wheel/tyre/height combo and all metal custom guards would be off the scale compared to that. But that's just my 2c, each to their own.  8)

With the perfect tyre, wheel and guard combo it can look like this:
