A front spoiler with enlarged air inlets and additional side vents lend the Audi an impressive front appearance besides generating greater downforce and, as such, enhanced driving stability. Side sills with air intakes per set enhance the air supply in the wheel arches and make the A 8 look lower. The rear view is adorned by a rear spoiler on the boot lid, which produces greater downforce on the rear axle, plus a rear valance attachment with diffuser. It is also possible to keep the sensors of a park acoustic system from the series model. Moreover, JE DESIGN offers cartridges for double headlights consisting of fog lamps and upper beam headlights for the front bumper. A completely new development in the form of a chrome-plated 4-pipe rear silencer system with a tailpipe diameter of 101 mm produces a sporty V 8 sound and also has a performance-enhancing effect. JE DESIGN fitted the new A 8 with the “Multispoke” complete wheel set rim 8.0 x 19 inch. These wheels have been fitted with tyres in the size 255/40 ZR 19. The electronic suspension lowering kit allows the suspension of the Audi A8 to be lowered by approx. 30 mm, whereby the lowering can be precision-adjusted after fitting in the range of +/- 15 mm in a similar way as with a coilover suspension. All JE DESIGN components are compatible with all A 8 motorizations as well as being suitable both for a short or long wheelbase. All the components come with a TÜV parts certificate and are fastened at either the original mounting points or by bonding, thus avoiding any need for additional drilling. Performance enhancements are currently in preparation for the new 4.2 l TDI – V 8 , which will boost the A 8 to approx. 390 bhp / 287 kW. The maximum speed then will be 285 km / h. |
