I’ve heard it said that they’re called ‘spoilers’ for a good reason... but each to his own.

I think that Barzya8 David has one which was factory fitted to his S8 Final Edition or at least fitted when it was new along with having the lower black parts colour toned in to match the rest of the car

Neil ( Architex mA8tey) is correct. Mine does have a rear spoiler fitted from new.
Here are a couple of photos of it.
Regards,
David

I like that little lip spoiler.

barzya8 any ideas where I could source one ? I also like the colour coding at the bottom - smart.

Hi Readie
I believe Spanker (Dean) has a similar one which he said he was not going to use, but it is black and slightly different to mine.
Failing that I would try Audi Tradition and see if they have any or can suggest where to get one.
Hope this helps.
I also love the colour coded bumbers. Some on here are not so keen though.
I think it adds a little point of difference and Class
