ABT’s new AS5 Dark is no superhero or super-car, for that matter, but it wants to look like one.

Created for the A5 two-door Coupe and five-door Sportback (that’s the one you don’t get in North America), the Dark is primarily a cosmetics package that works best when your Audi is painted or wrapped in black.

It includes front and rear aprons with red elements, “Dark” decals, front fender vents, black painted grille, 20-inch gloss black wheels with red outer rings (optionally with 265/30 ZR20 sport tires), and four tailpipes chrome-plated in black. The A5 Coupe adds a rear spoiler and side skirts.

A sports exhaust system and suspension, along with “Dark” floor mats and ABT emblems on the headrests, round out the basic package.

ABT says the “Dark” kit is offered at a “bargain price”, but doesn’t say what that translates into Euros.
