TRC Audi R8 Gen 1 Facelift Wide Arch Kit

Triple R Composites Audi R8 Gen 1 Facelift Wide Arch Kit

Transform the look of your Audi R8 Gen1 Facelift (2013-2015) with this wide arch body kit from Triple R Composites. It gives your R8 a much wider, lower and more aggressive stance, inspired by track and show cars.

What this wide arch kit does

This kit pushes the bodywork outwards, giving extra room for wider wheels and tyres while changing the overall shape of the car. The deeper splitters and canards help guide airflow around the car and can improve high speed stability when set up correctly. At the same time, the bold arches make the car look more planted and purposeful.

• Full wide arch look for Audi R8 Gen1 Facelift (2013-2015)
• Front arches widened by around +60 mm
• Rear arches widened by around +50 mm
• Gloss black finish that can be used as is or painted
• Strong GRP panels with 3D printed Nylon 12 canards and upstands
• Allows custom fitment of wider wheels and tyres

Kit contents

The Triple R Composites Audi R8 Gen 1 Facelift Wide Arch Kit includes:

Front splitter
Side skirt splitters with upstands
Rear corner spats
Front wide arch set – 3 piece, approximately +60 mm
Rear wide arch set – 2 piece, approximately +50 mm
Front canards (small fins that help manage airflow around the bumper)

Materials and finish

The main panels are made from GRP (glass reinforced plastic), which is light and strong, making it ideal for body panels. They come with a gloss black gel coat finish, so they can be fitted as supplied or sanded and painted to match your car.

The canards and side skirt upstands are produced from 3D SLS printed Nylon 12. This is a tough engineering plastic that holds its shape well and stands up to regular road use.

Custom wheel fitment

The wheel arch return edges are left long so your installer can trim them to suit your chosen wheel and tyre setup. This helps achieve the perfect gap and clearance.

The example setup shown in the images uses:

Front wheels: 19 x 9.5, ET -12, 5×112, 57.1 cb
Rear wheels: 19 x 12, ET 6, 5×112, 57.1 cb with +10 mm spacers
Front tyres: 235/35/19
Rear tyres: 305/30/19

These sizes are for guidance only and are not included with the kit.

Important fitment information

Body modifications are required to fit this kit. Cutting and reshaping of the original wings and bodywork is needed. Professional fitting is strongly recommended.
