Pretty much speaks for itself. Here's the before and after pics I think aside from the Euro steering wheel this is my 2nd favorite mod.

These were done by "AvantNoir."

perfection.

[RAudi Driver]

that looks awesome. Can you have this cat pm me? I want to do this to my Titanium edition. I think that it will complete the look.

[evilb]

Thanks. I've sent him the link to this thread so I'm sure he'll get involved.

I'm still fuming about some stupid b!tch running me into a median today while turning... after a car show... then she wouldn't pull over. Thankfully it was an angled median so it wasn't like hitting a curb, just like driving up over a speed bump. No damage to anything. Mother focking bad drivers!

[AvantNoir]

Thanks evilb! Thrilled you're happy with the work. The badges look awesome!

If anyone has questions. PM me.

oh dear lord that's clean!

One of the best AND cheapest mods.

[VZWalex]

Bump for a sweet and sleek mod ! Verry NicE!!

[Monchichi8]

Looks great! What did you use?? plasti dip or paint?

[RAudi Driver]

I would love to see an Avus Silver RS4 with the titanium package. your car is making AS one of my favorite colors, especially with the blacked out emblems.

[quattrosaint]

looks great, I wish my car was not black so I can do this!

Mine is close to it... just no window trim, mirrors, or exhaust. I think whatever exhaust I end up getting I'll have done in black, though. Seriously doubt that I'll replace the window trim and mirrors.

Evil,

[UBERS4]

Powdercoat the exhaust tips and you got yourself a perfect a$$

Totally argree with Tony!
Here is a pic of my Wifey's Blk emblem, pic taken while at Dubfest LV2008 yesterday.

not feeling it

[nealRlett]

Love the new look with the badges, did you do the badges on the rear doors as well?

any pics?

PS. I know you said you would not, but replacing the silver window trim would look amazing!! It made all the difference on mine. Little pricy though because not only do you have to replace the trim, but also the tiny windows by the rear doors as well!!!

watch out for bad drivers,
YOU CAR IS ONE OF THE BEST LOOKING RS4's ON THE ROAD!!

Hey man, thanks! The rear door emblems are a work in progress. Major pain in the ass, and expensive little fockers!

I'm not going to do the window trim. Too much $$ for the impact, imho... thousands of dollars. I'm all but done with appearance mods. I am going to do exhaust and STaSIS SL's and put a fork in it.

Thanks again,
B

who did the RS4 badge????

[AvantNoir]

who did the RS4 badge????

I did.

I have one set of the rear rings & one RS4 emblem for sale. There are brand new badges that are custom painted. PM me if you're interested in the set like evilb's. And Let me just say, this is a custom mod. It's not cheap. The quality speaks for itself.

[RAudi Driver]

I could use it but not in a gloss. Need it matte finish to go with the whole titanium look.

dude....i just pmed you yesterday and you told me that you dont do the S4 badges???

Parts and labor was under 900$.

[AvantNoir]

Yes, dude, I said I wasn't in production on those yet, the "S4" badges. I have to get the vinyl sized & cut. That expense comes out of my pocket.
If you want RS4 emblems I have 1 or 2, then they are going to be sold by two different retailers for more than what I'm charging.
You also told me that I charge too much for the rings, new rings at that.
Lot's of folks here on the board have been buying them, and all of them rave about the quality.
So why do you even care? You told me that you had "used" emblems that you were using. Go get a can of Krylon & go wild.

[ant7701]

First of all I told you that I would need the S4 badge, which right off the bat means that its up to you to provide one. Now if you have two for sale....why on earth would you tell me that you are 2 months away from producing them.

Secondly....if your gonna insult me by telling me to get a can of krylon and "go wild" because Im using used rings......then why the hell would you tell me to remove my bumper and remove my front set of rings to send to you. What...that wouldn't be considered "used" because they came off my own car. And lastly.....you told me $150 to paint my front rings and provide a set of rear rings painted for me. IM SORRY.......BUT THATS TOO MUCH. I sent you a nice pm asking about what you can do for me...if you dont wanna help someone out, then just say so. If you must use a new set of rings for the rear and "used" set of rings for the front....then your a joke. All you had to say was send me the "used" rings....i'll charge you $80 to paint them and we could of had a deal.

I'll go down to my bodyshop (Yes Im in the automotive business) and have them paint them and clear coat them and buff them all out and shit.....for $10

[AvantNoir]

I will respond to the first comment, I have 2 RS4 emblems, not "S4" emblems, you need to get that straight first off. I DO NOT HAVE ANY S4 EMBLEMS.
I told you 2 months, because that's how long it took to make the RS4 Rear emblems. I have to have new vinyl cut to replace the original. The vinyl shop I use is very good, but slow.

As far as the front rings go, yes the need to be recycled, as you cannot buy them without buying the grill. All other emblems I use are new, which I supply, with the OEM adhesive on them.

Hey, if you can get all that work done at your body shop for $10, then why would you even consider my obscene prices?

If you can have your shop do it then why even ask this guy in the first place? He clearly said he had RS4 badges not S4 badges and you come in here and start yelling at him for lying to you. Talk a walk bud, really.

[earhythmic]

anywho..back on topic...I have a dolphin gray S4....think that would be too dark for the blackout rings or...?

[wat2022]

This is some funny stuff!!!

[evilb]

I think the $10 body shop charge to get this guy's emblems and rings done in black also included a "fine print" additional requirement of a full body shop staff staff reach-around. I prefer just paying extra for the emblems :)

Glad to see your lawn is doing better as well...

I'm as bad as evilb. You should see the front of my house. Calling Desperate Landscapes! My cars look better than my landscaping. We have the same priorities.

I said I was in the automotive business. Actually...I probably wouldnt be charged a dime. And yes...as I stated I prefer paying for the extra effort and professionalism too. Thats why I asked him what my options are...what he can offer me, etc. Now if he wants to insult me for no reason, fine. You wanna come at me too, for what? This aint your conversation. I just wanted to see what the man can offer me. If he insists on using new rear badges so he can overcharge people....fine. He could have said sent both sets and i'll hook you up.

Point is...dont insult me over a miscommunication.

[Lugi20]

Can I hear more about that reach-around? This emblem stuff is starting to sound more and more interesting.

[evilb]

Hah, you guys have to remember that the picture above was taken at the end of winter. Grass doesn't like cold weather... see, you've learned something new today!!

Personally I think the only one that had an attitude was you, and you made it public when the conversations between you and Chris were in PM's.

And yes I am coming at you because you're acting like a little girl with sand in her vagina. If you don't want his emblems then don't buy them, make them yourself. My post wasn't to try and sell any emblems, just to show you guys what can be done with some time and effort.

At any rate, just shut up about it in this thread or take it to PM's.

[O_O] Interesting....

[colonelburke]

Yes, I think it would look good on Dolphin. Evil, very nicely done, looks great.

[wat2022]

Besides all the bitching and crying, back to the topic. Where can I buy black rings and black S4 badge?
