I need to be doing work, but I decided I would procrastinate and take pictures instead. I have a few new mods but nothing real major, I'm really happy with how everything looks, hopefully I'm done modding except brakes and tires when I need em. Might eventually switch up the wheels, been digging the BBS LMs or new Rotiform NUEs a lot.
New mods
- color matched front grille surround and trunk strip
- S4 door blades
- DTH skirts
- RS4 pedals, RS6 Dead Pedal & LED interior lights
I suck at pictures and actually broke my camera, so these are on my girl's camera. I tried to get a little artsy but I think that kind of failed, clearly I'm not an art student.

Really stoked with how the grille came out:

Thanks! They exhaust was made by Billy Boat (B&B), they basically mounted the front half of their A4 exhaust to the rear half of their S4 exhaust, then I picked up an S4 rear valence and painted it flat black. I might repaint the valence though, I think the flat black kind of hides the exhaust too much. Thinking of going gunmetal to match the wheels or possibly carbon fiber, I can't decide...

I think it's the mix. Gonna have to chose one or the other maybe.

car looks GREAT! One thing which has been mentioned- the skirts. I think what it is is that the skirts are too low to flow with the front and rear body lines. I'm thinking that a front splitter would really pull it together. Just some constructive criticism.. because that car is absolutely gorgeous! It's those little details that really make it.

Thanks man! I used to have a Cupra splitter and actually got the skirts because I thought they'd go well with the front lip. But the roads around me mangled that lip so badly I had to take it off. Oh well.

I've been thinking along similar lines recently, good to see it verified. Might have to put out a feeler and see if anyone wants to buy em...I love the skirts but I think it might be getting a little too busy down there.

Keep the skirts, get rid of the blades, no one does it [;)] It would also be kind of RS4-ish lol.
