    Spring

    Weather is finally turning around in Chicagoland, I don’t drive my S4 during the winter season. So I finally had a chance to do my oil change, check the car over and for no reason decided to lower the ride height. Here is a couple of pics of the ol girl in the driveway. Maybe it’ll encourage some fellow B5 owners to post some shots of their B5.







    Cheers!

    Looks great. Idk why silver gets knocked on, I like it better than nogaro. I said what I said.

    Thanks! I personally like silver. It highlights the body lines very well and generally looks great. Also doesn’t show dust or show small imperfections like darker colors as well.

    On a sedan, I agree. Nogaro on a sedan just never looked “wow” to me. On an avant though, it does look terrific. But, on this platform, always been a sedan guy.

    Looks great! Can't wait to get mine out as well. Up north in Canada the winter has been hanging on later than usual, so probable won't get it out for another week or two. We don't have any snow but we're still dipping below 0*C at night.

    Trust me, I have so many projects on mine that I am absolutely dreading, I have days that I just want to sell the car. But every time I drive it I fall in love with it all over, been going through the cycle for almost 13 years lol

    It's a Carbon Fiber Seat Cupra R Splitter from spoonfedtuning for the Audi B6/B8. I had to trim the sides a bit since, carbon fiber does not bend.

    Looks great! Super clean, harder and harder to come by clean examples nowadays. The ones that are out there are usually owned by enthusiasts like ourselves.

    Ah the 996, wish I took the opportunity to buy one before they sky rocketed in price. Almost bought a Carrera 4S, now I wish I did.
