    Re: Pics of Car....and mod suggestion

    wheels and suspension
    tune/intake/exhaust

    those are the basics.

    Congrats on the purchase. I would do suspension first. You can get the sports stock suspension for cheap in the classifed section if you don't feel like dishing out $600+ for an aftermarket set up. After that, choose your own route. I would start with a boost gauge and clear corners is free.

    Clicky Click
    Clicky Click pt2

    note: and I would change the wheels to at least 16" sport swings [cheap and will change the look (and ride if changing to sprts suspension) on your car dramatically]

    Nice set of 17's, basic coilovers to drop that 4x4 down some, Chip (you're in Canada, go see Unitronic), tint optional, search for "painted lowers" threads, and a quality, mild exhaust setup.

    Looks clean though so far.

    tint will be done on monday already have an appointment, i am aiming for rims and drop spring time after winter since they can be brutal and i need to get body work done so i will try to have them paint the lowers at the same time. What about S4 front bumper, is it worth it?

    De-badge. And since you asked for opinions, I don't really care for the chrome door handles.

    First buy my ATP 3" downpipe...

    Then attach a GT30 turbo to the front of it :-D

    j/k about the downpipe but seriously... upgrade the turbo or chip it then upgrade the turbo when you want more power.

    Re: Pics of Car....and mod suggestion

    This is how i started, 1) Clear Corner, 2) Tint, 3) Lip Spoiler (from Ebay), 4) SpeedTunning Chip. Got lazy after that, but you could do painting lowers also. Clear corner, tint, and painting lowers will alone give your car the biggest bang for the buck. I already had sports suspension so didnt mess with that. Hope this helps...

    Re: Pics of Car....and mod suggestion

    Get some suspension, paint the lowers, some new wheels, maybe debadge, if you want it for a daily driver no sense in working the engine really.


    Looks nice and clean though

    It costs nothing, unless you buy tools or something. It just means to remove the amber reflector from your turn front turn signals. The Europe the cars come this way. It looks much cleaner.

    here's some pics of mine if it can inspire you just a little at least

    You can do stuff like this, but you can't take it off any sweet jumps if you do.

    Me? First the B6 doesn't have a 2.0 that would be the B7 2.0T FSI. That's a 2.0L AWM built bottom end (Stoke and Bore brought to 2.0L)with an AEB head.

    You mean a 1.8T from a B6? I don't believe so, no (someone correct me if I'm wrong). And if it is, it sure isn't as easy as it sounds if you plan on doing it yourself.

    In terms of your car, this is what I did:
    1. Clear corners and debadge (both free!)
    2. Tints (20% all-around, even though that's illegal in my state )
    3. Wheels & tires (I would recommend 17s, depending on how much you want to lower it)
    4. Suspension
    5. Painted lowers
    6. Exhaust
    7. Xenon lights (please don't get Angel-Eyes... you don't drive a BMW)
    8. Interior (Kenwood in-dash nav. system, amplifier & subs, xenon interior lights, aluminum pedals)
    9. S4 bumper cover, fog brackets and side skirts

    After that it's all history. And I agree with the others... chrome on silver looks horrible, so take off those door handles.
