New mods = pics! Avant content

[speedydragon]

Still learning how to resize pictures shooting in RAW mode :| Gave the car a quick wash and decided to shoot some pics. A photoshoot will take place after I install something else on :D Constructive criticism more than welcomed!

Newest mods: ecodes, amber delete, painted cf hood.

Looking good... I like the wheels, but I think i'd like them more on your car if they were refinished in a darker color like maybe gunmetal

[blkb6a4]

^^^agreed^^^ I wish a had a advant :(

[biketsai]

Sexy, I never thought about how darker wheels would look but I think itd be cool man, you should try it!!! (peer pressure!!!) haha. Cant wait to see your bumper too!

[Rhinop21]

Gloss black the wheels and rs4 grill.

[Poopie]

keep the silver wheels. dark wheels get boring. you should paint the lowers while you are at it.

[speedydragon]

I would love to go with a gunmetal look, but unfortunately I don't have an extra set of wheels to put on during the down time. I was about to get gunmetal flik justice before I came across these. I don't really like black wheels unless there's a nice lip.

Lol, Chris, you already peer pressured me into viewing that S4 thread!

As for the lowers, I'll give it more consideration after I get my s4 front on. I still kind of like the looks of the unpainted lower, especially in the rear..gives it somewhat of a euro rear look..somewhat..

Thanks for all the comments!

[A4Rob]

Love the Rs6 wheels!

[biketsai]

I am really dying to see that s4 bumper.

[Naudi_Mat]

Looks good man. Just need to paint the lowers as well.

[McGovs2.7TB5]

sweet avant. Wheels look good as is, I want a set for my sedan.

[jbrentd]

Nice Avant. I would like to get some rs6's for mine especially after seeing yours.

[boostedup]

thats a sweet looking avant!

what did you jump on the bumper from the s4 avant they were parting out?? did you snatch the sideskirts?

[speedydragon]

Again, thanks for the compliments!

boosted: I didn't really "jump" on the bumper, I bought it at 4pm pacific time, and I believe the thread was posted at around 9 or 10am pacific time. I didn't get a chance to get the sideskirts, they were sold already.

[Brrman]

Santorin FTFW!!! Nice lookin car, man!

Similar to mine. Just wish I had tint.

[D.C. Designs]

looks very good just paint the lowers and drop it a bit more

[adr3naline fix]

I'm a bit confused on the Hood Pins....are they functional or did you just like the look?

[Idrive]

Nice santorin avant dude! Those rs6 wheels look killer!

And sorry but I'm the lucky guy who got those sideskirts off of that s4, it was just too perfect same color and everything. I'm sure the bumper is gonna look sick too!

Here's mine, I don't mean to jack your thread just showin some santorin love!

[JumboBlack1.8]

Great work on the Avant man....I'm real jealous of the CF hood. I've been contemplating getting one for a while, but don't think it'd hold up well to New England weather.....I'll have to disagree with everyone who says paint ur lowers.....the black and santorin (especially on the hood) looks good.....An RS4 grill would be a great next mod...good work tho

[B5A4Kevin]

sweet avant bro. really digging the hood. i say keep the wheels silver but get brushed mirror caps and an rs4 grill. looks great man keep it up.

[Cecchini]

Def. keep those wheels silver. It will look much cleaner if you do and the brushed mirror caps would really make the whole car come together.

[TQMB5]

dark wheels... looks good though

[sixfiveoh]

Much much better dude! That shit looks tight! Hit your chrome grill surround with some plastidip though, it makes all the difference for a mean front end!

[speedydragon]

Thanks for all the awesome compliments!

I will lower the car a bit more, I just want to get some other stuff done first.

The hood pins are functional, they're drilled into the the radiator support area. I wanted to get aerocatch pins, but these pins were bought/instaleld in early 2004, and the ship didn't have any in stock as most shops do today.

Yay! finally someone who doesn't like painted lowers either. I think rs4 grille, painted lowers, and rs4 or s4 mirror caps will be last priority for me right now.

The only thing I want to plastidip is the center console area haha.

[Go_S4]

Looks good

[Brrman]

The only thing I want to plastidip is the center console area haha.

Speedy
I sprayed my center console with Plastikote vinyl dye - black instead of the stock gray. I removed all the crappy rubberized coating. Looks much nicer now and has held up for over a year so far.

[speedydragon]

whoah that looks real good. clean and fresh!
