    wow looks really good! this might sound really stupid and gay but i was looking and i have gutter guards that fit in mine really nicely. depending on the size you get, they can come really small squares that might be what youre looking for. that or go to Homedepot and see if anything would work.

    worth a shot...

    Looks like you and I have the same issue w/ I/C pipe routing around the A/C lines.

    I think I'm going to have my I/C pipes anodized black.

    I ordered a set of VVME's and the DHL plane they were on was in an accident and now Im fighting with VVME because according to DHL the SHIPPER has to do the claim paperwork to get a refund from DHL. Im gonna file a paypal claim tomorrow if they dont email me by then.

    Get something to cover it like you mentioned...

    On my old A4 I left the center bottom grille on, and painted my pipes black.

    Re: FMIC and 6K HIDs pics!

    yeah i'm working on the lower grill thing. i might pick up some mesh or something....i'm really fillin' the black pipes. what did you guys use to paint them?? does it have to be high heat paint?

    i'll get some night shots. i would like to get some rolling night shots going across this big bridge by my house i think it'd look sweet....but i have no one around me that is good at photography. well my sister is really really good at it but i dont think she'd be down to hang out of a window or sunroof just to shoot pics of my car.

    They do look greenish, yes.

    More likely due to the color balance on the camera.

    Re: FMIC and 6K HIDs pics!

    yeah i took several pictures to get the right color but they kept coming out like that...but if you look at them in person they look like my 3.5SE maximas lights, just stock HIDs.

    those are not the same ones you ordered. these come with lifetime warranty and are 55w not 35w like yours.
