Bye bye for winter (winter setups)

[Styleprojekt]

My baby is going into hybernation for most the winter.
Thanks to Randy (AZ member "Quattro") I now have a new right mirror and can see again!
Here is what she looks like before you'll see her again in spring, hopefully a lot cleaner and with some new goodies from the Vaterland.





Oh and smoked the tails last night, some people were wondering what i was gonna do about the bright red taillights...





She says bye bye, see you in spring!

Post your winter Setups!

IMO i think you should leave the white alone but other than that you car is the true KNight Rider. Matter fact a German plate name for you is NITERIDER but how ever unique way you want to use it. YOur welcome and you should recieve my bill in the mail shortly lol.

The reason being, Salt. They pour tons of that junk onto the streets here and I dont wanna risk it messing with my paint. It already damages clear coated cars enough as it is so i dont wanna see the results on a single stage paint.

Winter mode:

You would...always blow me away with your determination and ideas

^^^Thats east coast for you!

[LampyB]

what will be your DD for the season? i hear you on the salt, but its a bummer because i specifically purchased my audi for winter conditions...this is absolutely the best time of year to drive it. i'm excited every time it snows!

[Capt. Obvious]

You would...idk about the red white combo hmmm...but none the less always blow me away with your determination and ideas.

It's just on plain ol' steelies at the moment actually. The white walls didn't play well with the modern tire side walls and the hubcaps wouldn't stay on correctly either. I've been looking for a ridiculous set of hubcaps to put on it for the winter (maybe a set of spinners or something LOL). I'll probably do the whitewall/mooneye thing with the Passat instead.

[vdubstreets]

to bad you dont live in Delaware black dare plate would be awesome.

Uh, i think he lives in salt lake city.

[Maverick]

o man, that's a beautiful car.

what performance mods have you done to the car?
I think I beat you to it this time, haha! I still remember your thread.

[04_A4_1.8T]

wow that car is sexy... post up some more pics... my car just gets raised up and black rims...

[Styleprojekt]

Daily will be a ML320.

Car is all show-on-the-downlow and no go

Its cool though, im happy with it

[chadb2434]

very nice looking car, styleprojekt!

[fitch303]

you destroyed that car, flat black.....really?

[dougyfresh]

SHAVED!

Beautiful!

Guess I missed your other threads for this is the first time I've seen your car. I like the paint but am not liking the black tail lights and wheels. Guess 100% black is not that enticing to me but I REALLY like the flat black body.


I'll get you my winter 'setup' next week...

[Styleprojekt]

Satin Black just to correct you.

And hey, one destroyed car wont make much difference in a fleet of glossy cars

I love destruction

[Charlescrs6]

thats rediculous. Just curious, how do you open the doors with the shaved handles?

[Exanimas]

Such an incredible car, but I have to agree with Dougy on the black wheels. It almost makes it look like a mule car. Still, I love the paint and the shaved handles.

[jon102034050]

gosh what a beautiful car, good work on it - one of the most unique B6's on here! Props and sad to see it hibernate!

[Capt. Obvious]

There are electric solenoids that actuate the latch and spring-loaded poppers that push the door out a couple inches so you can grab the door and open it.

[Styleprojekt]

thanks for the props guys.
The wheels are a just for now setup. Im really short on money like most of us and cannot get the really big poke and stretchy wheels that i would like to get for 4-5k. The wheels looks TONS better in black in my opinion. They are only 17"...so black makes em appear bigger because the entire wheel as one big black thing looks bigger. Its all optical illusion stuff hehe.

[dougyfresh]

Still loving the shaved look. Even the trim partway down the doors. My next car will be a B5 S4 and I want to find a black one to shave and paint satin.

[BlackB6]

Right now I hate your car, there is way to much blackness for my liking. BUT, hit it with some silver accents and I would love it. Such as Aluminum mirrors, silver center caps or line around your rims, silver trunk molding and maybe even silver Audi rings. It would be sick as hell .

Plates are white accents = problem solved

An Audi that can't hack it in the snow... is the OP missing the point, or am I?

Shaved handles are the sickness though. I like flat black... but on an ExigeS.

My winter set up:



One for city and one for highway trips/commutes.

Lol it can hack it, just dont wanna risk salt damage on the paint
