    Re: Super Stoked!

    You want to start off by reading over this section here. You can find the answers to most of your questions there. Also check a4mods.com. You can get the battery cover at ecstuning.com or the dealership.

    Congrats on the A4.

    Re: Super Stoked!

    Badges can be removed with fishing line and a hair dryer, plus some scrubbing. Hold the hair dryer on it for a couple minutes to make it hot and pull the fishing line through behind the badge and it will come off. Then goo gone or something like it and rub off the remaining adhesive.

    Chrome trim you can find a DIY for on a4mods.com

    try the search feature for the rest

    Re: Super Stoked!

    Very nice. I'd suggest 3M Adhesive Remover for the debadge. Goo Gone didn't cut it at all for me. Tons of info on what's already been posted. That should get you started and then some. Keep us posted.

    And I got my 'dope' stickers here... although it took them a while to ship em out.

    1. Fishing Line and GooGone. Rub the fishing line behind the emblems (preferably when its warm) and they will come off. Then goo gone the residue.
    2. Click Here
    3. Powdercoat or sand them and rattle can (spray paint). Both have been done before.
    4. Your dealer should have that part readily available for you.
    5. The light, try searching for "dome light" on the forums and something might pop up.
    6. Debadge your old ones, paint, and put on
    7. I think a user makes them somewhere on here. Search bar is your friend
    8. 16.5$ sounds like an amazing price actually. Maybe a little high but cant beat white!

    XXX: Post pics
    I heart wagons.
