My A5 Pics

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-17-2010 08:20 AM

Finally got around to taking good pics of the car (or good for an amateur with a mid-grade camera....). Just polished and laid down a couple coats of sealant and got my 25mm spacers on the rear. Hope you like

**njpeteo** · 10-17-2010 08:49 AM

Nice, clean look, 25mm spacers in the rear make it look perfect. Great job...

**Wah** · 10-17-2010 09:22 AM

Looks stealth-like

Can you take a straight pic of the rear?

**faster160** · 10-17-2010 10:39 AM

looks great, but that has to rub in the back and maybe the front too?????

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-17-2010 12:45 PM

Wah, here is the best i had on hand. I can take more, just let me know...dont mind at all.

Faster, no it does not rub at all and I have tested it every way possible. The wheels are 20x9 have an ET40 offset so the 15mm/25mm are just what i think it needs.

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-17-2010 12:47 PM

And thanks for the compliments guys

**Okan509** · 10-17-2010 01:28 PM

Looks really good man!

**ExhaustNote** · 10-17-2010 01:31 PM

Looks very nice! Have you thought about getting some ecodes?

Where can I get those spacers? I just ordered my car today. Where do I get them installed? Thanks and sick ride.

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-17-2010 04:24 PM

Thanks guys, I am really enjoying this car. Have had several Audi's but this one is just addictive. I would love ecodes but I cannot see spending the $1,000 for what little you get. Or let me re-phrase, If I had that cash laying around I would pick a set up for sure. I would call Achtuning for the spacers (425 895 0000) and speak to Skyler. I dealt with him on my springs, wheels and spacers. He is very knowledgable. They also have a website that has spacers and prices and I believe they have a sale right now and free ship on spacers. I have DR in the front and DRA in the rear. They are made by H&R. You can install yourself easily. Takes about 30 minutes tops. The DR simply slide on and re mount wheel with longer bolts and DRA bolt to hub and allow you to keep factory bolts.

Noticed ibis in your sig and checked out your car. Looking really nice! Are those you latest pics? I have an 07 ibis a4 s-line titanium and would like to upgrade sometime. Just have been so busy with the coupe that I have not looked around at how the b8 a4's are looking when properly modded.

**AofC_RR** · 10-19-2010 08:58 PM

Nice ride! You're not far from me. Great roads up your way. I used to live in Boone.

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-20-2010 05:02 AM

Thanks! Yea, I lived in Boone for 3 years while at ASU. And yes, very nice driving for sure! They need to shut down the Parkway for a "fun day". I used to stay in Charlotte quite a bit and have many friends in the area.

Oh thanks man, The A4's are extremely nice, I love this so much.

**teky929rr** · 10-20-2010 06:21 AM

Looks great!

**S5 Jammy** · 10-27-2010 06:55 PM

love these wheels! your car sits niiiiiiceee!!!

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-27-2010 08:13 PM

Thanks, very pleased how it all came together!

**Sharkfin** · 10-28-2010 12:20 AM

Car looks great, I'm glad to see a NC resident reppin a a5/s5 on here

**Mops@Nemesis** · 10-28-2010 05:28 PM

Yea, we are rare haha. I happen to have the only one in my county. I enjoy that though. And thanks!

**Wah** · 01-08-2011 11:11 AM

Those tips looks fantastic - What's the diameter?

What rear mufflers are you using?

**Mops@Nemesis** · 01-08-2011 11:27 AM

Thanks! They look MUCH better now. I went to a 7" length from the 3.5" (didn't like how you could see the taper to the piping) in the pics and I tucked them in the valance much better. Now I have an even .25 inch gap rather than the large gap in the pics. Diameter is 4" which looks about right. Here is a link to the tips. http://www.hottexhaust.com/detail.asp?product_id=35121

No rear mufflers....AWE mid muffler and stainless out to the tips.

**Mops@Nemesis** · 01-09-2011 10:54 AM

For reference if anyone is interested...

Where did you get your rear valance from and could you post some video of your exhaust in action? What exhaust system did you go with and what did it cost to purchase and then install?

**Mops@Nemesis** · 01-09-2011 09:44 PM

Above is a link to the exhaust clip. I need to do a better one soon with more room to accel. The rear valence is factory for the 3.2L "s-line" package. Should be able to pick one up easily. Exhaust is custom. Used an AWE mid muffler and removed rear mufflers and ran straight pipe to the rear. The AWE mid may be hard to come by but you may be able to use a magna flow mid an get the same effect. Cost= $250ish for mid, $180 for stainless pipe and $100 for tips. And sounds as good if not better than the 3.2 setups I have heard. Not bragging, I have always peiced my exhaust systems with my 1.8's, 2.0's and current 3.2 and have been so pleased with the results.

**UrbanLiterature** · 01-10-2011 05:55 AM

You're right... it does sound good. May have to consider your setup. Maybe someone with a 2.0T will do it first and post a vid. either way, great job and thanks for the info!!!

**Mops@Nemesis** · 05-29-2011 06:14 PM

Took a little trip today and got some nice shots...thought I would share...

**Sharkfin** · 05-29-2011 06:42 PM

Where'd you go?

Oh and what type of camera do you use?

**Mops@Nemesis** · 05-29-2011 07:13 PM

Good ole Ashe/Watauga area. Camera is a $250 Nikon point and shoot....looking to upgrade to a cannon T1i DSLR when the birthday rolls around;)

**Sharkfin** · 05-29-2011 07:23 PM

That's a damn good point and shoot, what model?

**Mops@Nemesis** · 05-29-2011 07:42 PM

Sorry, its cannon...PowerShot SD790 IS. Did my research and its was the best for the $. For sale soon;)

Hey mopsta81, nice setup. I like the RS4 wheels.
By the way, is that Monza Silver? It looked like Ice Silver in the original set of pictures from last year but your latest ones (when it's overcast) kind of looks like Monza.

Thanks Fanatic, its Avus silver. Offered on the A3, RS4 and the A5 s-line. VERY similar to Monza.
