Burning the 3:00AM Oil

[ModernImagePhil]

So it's 3:21 AM, just got out of the club, now it's time to finish Tinaalias car!



Anyone awake?!?!

So what a big mess we've got here. I have no floor jack in the shop, I have the drivers side installed with 2 rivets in the front already. I can't get the rivets in the back because the wheel is in the way. The stock jack will not fit under the car now. What to do? I'll come up with something amazing... BRB.

[TinaTbolt]

So yeah, these sideskirts already had holes in them from the previous owner so I used the existing holes. Anyway, I used rivets for the front, very legit.



But when it came to the back as you can see from my previous post that Tom Foolery had dawned upon me. Luckily I found some body screws laying around the shop...



This gives me the opportunity to get to Group 5, home, or a friends house that will have a floor jack so I can put the rivets in.

Oh yeah, always use tape... lots of tape.

Note to self: Sometimes cookies don't really clear and I have to manually delete cookies or I'll keep posting under Tinas SN.

So, i'm thinking at this time I should've used double sided tape due to the fact that this adhesive probably needs 24 hours to cure.

I'll 2nd that on the front.
Everything else looks good but the front looks too heavy on the bottom.

[Phatt_Audi]

that's a very chubby front. not liking it very much.
Sides look amazing though.

[mitchholmstrom]

Pretty sure Ive seen this car...

[OverSpun]

[channad]

[MOFSTEEL]

WAY too much going on.
Looks like you're trying to hard.

[acidrome]

^ I think he may be right. The front skirt is just a lil too much.

[SoCalS4Avant]

MOFSTEEL has found his way to sunny So Cal!

[acidrome]

he sure has. haha.

[ModernImagePhil]

Wow thanks for the support... you guys are awesome.

I didnt even pay attention to the forum.
SoCol would be a nice change from Chicago in the winters.
I guess I wouldn't need my winter wheels anymore.
That plow front end might work wonders on the snow drifts here though.

That's hilarious!

Some of us like to drive in snow though - check out Channa's photos in the S4/RS4 thread on springs. Of course, he was in Northern CA...oh well.

[whartung]

Mammoth is still valid in the SoCal forum. Considering every single person in LA seems to go there every single winter, I think Channad's pictures count.

That's acceptable reasoning. Bay Area folks usually go to Tahoe, and the So Cal people usually go to Mammoth. Although, I've been to our local mountains, and they're always filled with people - the snow and skiing is terrible, but there's always people there.

There he goes again but I gotta agree with the man of steel on this one. Dump the body kit and leave the wheels and it'll work. But to each their own and if you like, then rock it.

I don't know if the sponsors would like if we just DROPPED the body kit. I'll note it.

If they sponsored the "Mr. Plow Edition" body kit then who cares?
Hi, we want to sponsor your car so put on this horrible body kit.
Ummm, no.

Raudi is dead on. Peace out the kit and the car will look smooth.
