    Re: well im new... kinda

    those 19"s looks wayy outa place on your car....you need a set of coilovers ASAP....I would also say that the car needs its lowers painted...

    I like the stock lower valance alot more than the aftermarket one you have on the car...it looks outa place because it is soo much lower than the sides...but a set of S4 sideskirts would probably help alot....

    I am thinking that if the tires go down a size, the wheels wouldn't look soo big....

    loose the amber sidemarkers, just pickup some clear ones...and if it was my ride I would also remove the Audi emblems on the fenders....

    although I am not a big fan of spoilers on A4's, yours looks like it works pretty well...

    definitely a good looking car....keep up the good work!

    why don't you have any shots of the rear end?

    Re: well im new... kinda

    im havin trouble taking a pix of the rear end i like actually. the wheels are really only 18s, i know they look huge. im debatting on the coil overs its my winter car, and if i drop it its goin to stay down. so id have to buy another winter car. the front valence was kinda messed up so i decided to try that. think im goin to go with s4 skirts and the euro rear lip(not sure if thats wat its called). the spoiler im kinda unsure of. the audi badges on the sides r kinda corny.


    just an avic n1 i had laying around

    i actually have an n3 thats being converted to red led like this


    and im building up my dash so i can put all this in without seeing an installation kit dont mind the cf just using it as a guinea pig. then almost all of the pioneer logos will b gone and it will say audi concert across the top above the screen and have the 4rings under the screen on the far left side. hard to visualize but ill keep u posted

    Re: well im new... kinda

    what I say reflects my own personal opinions/views...

    what i said above was all recomendations...none of what I said, was pressuring...I was basically taking notes out loud....

    if goodhews chooses to go another direction with his vehicle, he is free to....normally when people post pics they are looking for insight, comments, recomendations....I feel as tho I was just sharing my ideas....

    the last thing I want is for every modded B5 to look exactly the same...there are many different ways to make a B5 look like sex....

    well, like I said above...goodhews, very good looking car!...keep up the good work

    and yes, those 18"s look huge...I woulda bet $ that they were 19"....are those tires 235/40/18?...how wide are they?

    besides that, I think the rearend could use a de-badge and i am definitely iffy about the spoiler....but my best guess is that it is bolted on....which means if you loose it, than you will have holes in your trunk lid....

    another thing to think about would be facelift taillights/or you could smoke the tailights and the spoiler light....

    Re: well im new... kinda

    yea thats my dilemma on the tail lights smoked or face lift, its a tough one. the tires are 225/40-18 wheels are 18x8 et35. yea the spoilers bolted on, but thats no big deal. my family owns a bodyshop i manage, part time. so any body work i can handle no problem. its just a mater of getting some extra time, i work for honda full time. i am an engineer, i design all the lathes/presses/broaches/ebws etc. but im sorry bout that b518t, i dont want u thinkin im a jerk or anything. i dont mind any of ur comments, i actually appreciate them.

    all red tail lights also an option(thanks zombieattackk)
    now that its been brought up they r really bothering me. need to figure out wich way to go, so i can have them shipped by tomorrow

    Re: well im new... kinda

    Very nice. I like that color.

    IMO, I would definatly lower it, lose the spoiler and go M3 lip, facelift tailights, get rid of the front lip, and don't paint the lowers. And fully detail it to really bring out that yellow. But thats what I would do if I owned it
