This looks very impressive, literally Ultimate A8. Well done mate

Re: A5 headlights.
I thought you talking about this design as they actually look very similar


...but the ones from the picture look absolutely stunning on 8 I have to say, it's just not a straight swap.
Yes, near the wing bumper needs to be sculpt, but also bonnet needs a little work and bumper on the grill side, you sculpt a bit in line with top of the headlight, but they you also have to make up near the bottom corner of the headlight.

Shame I've just re-sprayed the whole front, but idea is rather interesting and it looks so good.

Then mounting points, that will require a bit of work as well I think.

If you do that, I will be well jealous

Great project, really impressive
