I'm "considering" putting my rings back on the car and now I'm debating whether to leave them chrome as original or plasti-dip black.
Need your opinions on front and rear.
Here is the car for reference.

I just blacked out my rear rings and I'm really happy with it. I'm going to blackout my grille trim and front rings as soon as I can get my bumper off.

Chrome for sure. Especially for your rear, cuz of your valence, and trunk trim.

I say front should be black. It looks mean on black. Contrast? you have the euro plate and clear headlights for contrast.
Keep the rear off. You make it grow on me.

Personally, i like the picture of the front with no badge, but i think you need something in the back. So, i would sy chrome back and nothing up front.

I voted chrome for both. After all the blacking out I'd have the rings chrome so they popped and stood out. Make a statement with the symbol!

Looks like I might be adding both front and rear in chrome, but this also brings me to the next question and/or poll. Should I blackout my window trim?

Nope, keep it the way it is. You gotta contrast with your whole theme.

Man, I was so concerned about having to do the window trim on my car if I put a black grill on it. It seems like the trim would be a PITA, but if I'm keeping my rings chrome it looks like it might go well together with the chrome trim. Mine is just spotty and faded a little though, anything I can do to get that shine back? Polish or something?

On the front. Off the rear.
Please explain to me the point of black rings in the rear on a black car? If you want people to know it's an audi, leave them chrome. If you don't care what people think and know the car is designed well then take them off.

Here is how they came out on silver. I like the contrast and just like the look of the black rings, Had i bought a black car, would more than likley have left them chrome.

I agree. I like the headlights like that. Blacking it out on a black car is overkill
