Actually it did. Apparently it is a cargo area partition, to protect the passenger area from objects becoming projectiles, especially if you have the seats folded down.

It came in a nice carrying case as well.

Oddly enough, i can't seem to see it mentioned anywhere, no one has ever shown pictures of it. I couldn't figure out how to install it initially because there didn't seem to be any mention of it in the manual.

But i'm glad i got it. I will be taking it out shortly, but wanted to get some pics of it.

Thanks. I was always wondering what exactly is the cargo area partition, and now I know exactly what it is.

Nice pics bigc! I see you too installed exhaust tips. Nice touch. It looks so much better with them.

The exhaust tips I believe are actually standard with the S-Line package. I know some folks didn't think it was worth while, but i thought i was actually an awesome value. Paddle shifters, different steering wheel and different gearl shift, different bumper, and rear valence with mesh and the aforementioned exhast tips, as well as 20inch wheels.

Mine came with with Pirelli Scorpion Verde tires. They seem okay so far, but are defintely not "SUMMER tires" anyone with an S-line get different tires?

OK, that might be true. I went with Premium Plus and paid for tips separately. 120$ is not much at all, I don't get it why Audi didn't include it.

Yes my S-line (picked up last week) 20's came with Bridgestone Dueler Sport summer tires, you do not want to drive in snow with these puppies. Winter tires on route in Windsor and can't get here fast enough.

Nice you are lucky. Those tires have a great looking profile and seem to be well reviewed.

The Pirelli's i got on mine are a pretty new model. Apparently they are an all season tire, made with some new "green technology" one of the benefits supposedly is less rolling resistance.

I wonder why the difference, especially in two vehicles delivered around the same time.

Hey bigc_2k3. Nice car. It looks like the chrome ring around your passenger foglight is missing. Could it just be the lighting or the angle of the photo?
