ONAIR BUILD SERIES / AUDI RS5
Blue paint. Silver wheels.
ONAIR underneath.
Some builds make you stop what you are doing in the shop and take another look. This blue Audi RS5 is one of them. The paint catches the ceiling lights, the silver five-spoke wheels sit tight beneath the arches, and the black front splitter finishes the low, wide look.
Underneath is ONAIR air suspension. In the trunk, a dual-compressor setup, 2V management and a black leather-wrapped mounting board bring the same attention to presentation. The final stance gets the first look, but the work that brings it together deserves its own feature.

From the box to the shop floor
Before the finished photos, there is the hardware. The black-and-gold ONAIR components give a close-up look at the air struts, rear air springs, dampers and braided lines going into the RS5. These are the details that disappear behind the wheels once everything is together.


With the car raised and a front wheel removed, the focus shifts from the overall look to the installation itself. Capturing this stage is part of what makes a build feature worth sharing: you get to see more than just the final air-out.
A trunk setup built around the details
The trunk layout begins with a simple tank mock-up on the unfinished board. From there, the materials give it character: black leather, a brushed-finish tank, chrome compressors and blue tank straps. The blue ties the hardware back to the exterior without making the trunk feel overdone.
The dual compressors sit on either side of the tank, giving the arrangement a balanced look. The leather-wrapped board provides a clean base beneath the hardware, while the braided hoses add another visible detail. It is a purposeful layout that gives each component room to stand out.


2V management, neatly integrated
ONAIR 2V management brings straightforward front-and-rear control to this setup. Its compact manifold sits centrally on the board, keeping the management hardware part of the overall layout rather than an afterthought.
The installation photos show how the board sits toward the rear-seat side of the trunk. One view has the floor panel removed; another shows it fitted during assembly, with the tank not installed in that shot. Together, they show the layout coming together while leaving a broad area of trunk floor in front of the hardware.


The final air-out
Back on its wheels, the whole build reads differently. The silver five-spoke design contrasts against the blue body, the red calipers show through, and the aired-out stance brings the arches down around the wheels. Under the hexagonal shop lights, the RS5 has more than enough presence on its own.
That is what ties this one together: an exterior that makes you look twice, with a trunk setup that rewards a closer look. Bagged with ONAIR, right down to the details.
Aired-out photos show the parked stance, not a recommended driving height.
