Very unique Q5 in cosmic blue metallic

[Auditography]

Hi guys.

I thought I'd show off my updated ride here in a new thread.

So, when I bought her in 2011, she looked liked this:


Then, 1 year later, after...
*Facelift headlights
*Facelift taillights
*S-line front
*S-line rear
*20" RS6 wheels
*S-line grille
*AWE Tuning resonated exhaust
*USP Motorsports intake system & heat shield
*ECU Remap
*Window tint
...she looked like this:


And now, three years later, I decided to do a full makeover.
So, this is what happened know.
*Full exclusive wrap in cosmic blue metallic by WrapStyle
*Mirrors wrapped in SQ5-style
*Front middle part of the bumper wrapped in the same style as the mirrors
*Rear diffuser also in the same style
*RS-meshy grille with quattro badge, to match the S-line side grilles

Basically my goal was to create a very clean S-line. Not a SQ5 wannabe or a fake RSQ5 that doesn't even exist. I want the red thread in the styling to keep the chrome / aluminum part to go along with the wheels and the rails, and now all the other parts, that also went along with the blue color. I wanted the sepang blue, but when I saw the cosmic blue metallic, it was like the sepang blue on steroids.

So, here she is. I couldn't be more satisfied with the result.





















And also posted a short video:

Very nice!! Custom, but not extreme. That's exact what I'm trying to do on mine. Actually just received the mesh grille this week.......

Quick question for you. The wheels are described as 20" RS6 wheels. Are they any different than the 20" Peelers that came optional on the Q5? I'm looking at a set now, that's why I'm asking.

Anyone know how I can beef up a Q5 to go fast and keep up with an S4

digging the blue!

Damn that's beautiful! I'm all for changing it up every few years. Much more economical than a new car payment, lol.

The transformation and the wrapped mirrors and front mid bumper is amazing love the contrast in colors.

Just an APR Stage 1-2 and a pulley upgrade. Easy.

I believe that it's the same wheels as the S-line 20" yes.

Totally agree! Q5 looks great!! In my opinion, yours is an example for when owners set out to modify their cars.

[hc_TK]

did you feel any actual power increase with ECU remap and intake?

Do the S4 mod

[Auditography]

Absolutely! With the exhaust, intake and ECU Remap, she's on aprox 300-305hp and that's the most you can get out of this 3.2, without supercharging it of course.

I have the same car and engine, have fitted SQ5 rear muffler which highly improved the sound.
Not willing to pay the ridiculous cost of full AWE or similar system though.
But I have considered going for a intake and ECU remap.

The AWE Tuning resonated exhaust system is the mod im most satisfied about and is worth every penny. Can not imagine the car without it. It's a joy of driving it every second.
