Hi have just purchased an S6 Avant and was considering buying some mudguards for it. (I tend to put them on my cars). Has anyone fitted any on their Avant, do they suit the car and if so could you post some images of them on the vehicle? I’ll include a photo of my new motor. 

Appearance?? Worth trying Aliexpress at a fraction of Audi price if they do them. 
Regards,

Gareth. 

Thanks, yes have no intention of sourcing from Audi direct. 

Please let us know how you get on then, since no doubt, other members can then benefit from your experience.

Regards,

Gareth. 

How did you get on then Mike?

Mate this message has had me getting warnings! 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’m out of the country travelling with limited access to WiFi. Anyway in the hope it stops me getting into more trouble, here’s the (non) update. Since the topic was started I’ve had literally nothing back from anyone who has mudguards. So I’ve shelved the task for now as I’ll do some research first and then report back. Cheers. 

So ended up buying these. £29.99 including shipping. Will update further once delivered.

Will do. That’s what we’re for isn’t it? Try and assist where we can. 👍🏼 

So mudguards fitted. I think they look good. Was easy enough and managed to do it without removing wheels. However a couple of points to note. 
1:  when fitting the front guards, you first have to “pop” a couple of rivets on each side (keep the top rivet in situ). This is done by pushing the centre of the rivet through with a very small screwdriver. Thanks to @Das for his help on this. However the holes left behind in the bodywork were actually too big for the screws supplied with my mudguards. Luckily I had a (very) old pack of U Clips from Halfords in my toolbox and was able to use these to make the holes more useable and the mudguards very secure. Had to drill a small hole to secure the bottom of the mudguard (small enough so the supplied screws would fit) but did this once I had fitted and secured the guards using the two screws and U Clips to the side. Turning front wheel full lock will allow enough space, at least it did with my 20inch alloys. I’m sure 21’s will also be fine. 
2: Rears, whilst being able to utilise the torx screws already in place, had a lot less room to work with. I ended up using an adjustable wrench and the correct torx bit. Was a bit fiddly, but got the job done. Anyway I’m very happy with the results. May not be for everyone, but I’m happy with the less shouty “dad wagon” vibe that I’m trying achieve and the mudguards add to that I think.
