    Base Model B9 A4 Side Skirt Help

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ladies and Gents, I recently got a pretty good deal on a base model A4 Quattro 2019 and so far I'm loving it.
    I started doing some mods, lowering and wheels and I noticed that my side skirts looked a bit different from the top tier, both A4 and S4 models, now I can't unsee it.

    Does anybody have any idea what is the name of this little side skirt part that goes below the doors, I'll purchase and install them myself.

    Cheers!

    That's probably the "stone chip guard":
    8W0 853 931 GRU left and 8W0 853 932 GRU right for the B9.0 sedan and avant
    8W0 853 931 A GRU left and 8W0 853 932 A GRU right for the B9.5 sedan and avant

    They are added if you are PR 6EP (additional stone guard body covers). But for the "s-line", PR 2K7, you get it 6EA (without additional side body covers) or 6EP.

    Different pieces and p/ns for the allroad, which is also likely to have 6EQ (additional stone guard body covers type 2) rather than 6EP.


    There's also the accessory item "wide sill panel":
    8W0 071 995 9AX left, 8W0 071 996 9AX right, or kit of both 8W0 071 685 9AX
    These are only for the B9.0 sedan and avant, and I imagine incompatible with the stone chip guard.

    Goated reply, thanks for that!
    I think I'll probably end up getting some aftermarket piece to fill that space, the OEM parts are too expensive for that little piece.

    Yeah, and they are GRU or 9AX, both which means primed for painting. So you'd have to get them painted to match as well.

    There are also aftermarket options as well in carbon or plastic looks from various suppliers if that fits the look you're going for too.
