George Bush will be happy...

Well I got my stimulus check today and I had it for about 15 minutes. I just ordered black 19" Ultraleggera's wrapped in BF goodrich G-Force T/A KDW-2's. The car is red and I'm going for the red/black look. So I ordered black vinyl to cover the chrome trim since I don't want to spend the money on paint at the moment and I have read that it is very difficult to get the paint to stick. I am also putting new springs on to lower it 1.4". Also ordered smoked repeaters and side markers. And finally yellow lamin-x for the front fogs. I am definitely EXCITED and will post pics when everything arrives and is installed. The economy has been STIMULATED!

damnn how much stimulant did u get? I thought we're only getting $600??

[Glassnpowder98]

only $600... but I had also been saving up as well. I wish I had kids so I got $1200... Ha yeah right, if I had kids I definitely wouldn't be driving an Audi.

damn that was quick! Did it direcy deposit or did you get a paper check? I love the black Ultraleggeras. Nice buy.

[Glassnpowder98]

I had it direct deposited. The checks take a good deal longer. Here is a link if you are wondering when you will get yours...

Uhhh G.B. ain't happy, that's an Italian company. Your supposed to boost the American economy with that check. But in reality even if everybody spent they're check on an American brand it would hardly be anything significant. More baseless solutions for the economy, that said, I should be ordering some more German made parts for my car. LOL.

Let me know how the vinyl turns out. Pics when it gets done!

[HeHateMe]

I would say that most of the people on this board are going to spend at least some of their refund check on mods for their audis. I know I am.

Thanks for the money G-DUB!!!!!

Haha yeah... I realized that after I purchased the wheels. Probably should have got some BBS wheels or somethin if I was really trying to help the economy. oh well...


And Widget, I got the vinyl off of ebay. I pasted the link below... you order by the foot and it's 15 inches wide. I got 20ft of it. I really have no clue how much I am going to need and I don't really have any experience applying vinyl or anything like that. I just figured that I would try it out since it is a semi cheap way of doing it. I figured since it is 15 inches wide I'll be able to cut the pieces in arc shapes to go around the corners and hopefully it will be pretty smooth. I thought that if I was unsuccessful in doing it, I could always bring it to the place I got my windows tinted and hopefully they could do a better job applying it. My springs won't be in until late this coming week so hopefully I will have everything installed by the weekend. I'll make sure to post pics when everything is done.
