Nice rims, I like the simple 5 spoke design, what do they weight? Where'd your headlights go? Also in this pic your rear door looks a different color, or am I just seeing this?

[VtAudi]

Dunno on weight, UPS says 62lbs for all 4 pkgs?? Putting in HID's tonight, (ProtoID's) Doors are the same, just the light I guess.

[SoleMate]

I like the no-headlight weight reduction you did

Nice rims btw.

[VtAudi]

Ya, its my new DRA Mod, Dual Ram Air, +30hp.....

Hey VTaudi,

I see your car outside Sneakers every time I go there. Rims look good - I remember walking out after breakfast and thinking "Not bad, could use some rims though..."

On an off-topic, since you are a Burlington local - I recently moved here - who's good to deal with for Audis. We were checking out the blue '01 1.8 at Autohaus... we'll see if they meet our price...

Did you move into the apartment above Monkey? We looked at it but they wanted some one to move in right away...good location.

Think you are AZ'r #2 for Vt lol, ya, I live right above the Monkey ; ) Especially since I work at IBM, I can just roll out of bed and buzz right down. Autohaus is pretty good, stay away from that Import place off exit 12 though, they blow. THey did a cotrol arm for me one time and forgot to put the bolt in, other than that they dont inspect there cars, they just have them sent up.

Yeah, we looked at a few cars at the Import Center or whatever, they seemed pretty shady...way overpriced too.

I live just over the bridge by Dominos. Like I said, we're looking at buying a condo, but if the right car popped up, who knows?

Holy Sh&t, 3 of us, going to have to schedule a ride soon, lol. Well Bc needs to get a car first, lol, so only 2 of us technically.

[BCtransplant]

Yeah, I'm working on it...might have to wait for the 'ol xmas bonus though - it would be nice for the winter.

[VtAudi]

No problem. As far as which locks you need I would yank one of the bolts off the car and measure it for length and see what seat you need cone or tapper seat. Measure from bottom of where bolt tappers to end of bolt.

Otherwise give Mike at Pure-MS a call he probably knows if you tell him the wheel and size of the spacer.
