Full Photoshoot: 2018 SQ5 with (non-OEM) Black Optics, AWE Exhaust and 22" Zenetti's!

[BklynSQ5]

Good afternoon fellas! Last week my brother in-law was nice enough to take time out of his busy schedule to snap a ton of pics of my new SQ5. I really can't get over how happy I am with the outcome. I love the lines, the colors (or lack there of haha), the stance and how aggressive a somewhat ordinary car came out! Modifications so far: 22" Zenetti Esquires with Pirelli Scorpions, AWE Resonated Exhaust, Trim wrapped in gloss black wrap, 20% tinted front windows. I'd love to hear any feedback you guys have! Below are just a few shots. Enjoy gang!!

Very nice! Best looking B9 I've seen yet.
Not to pick nits, but why didn't you black out the crash-bar portion of the grille?

[VroomVroom]

Outstanding shots of one slick machine!

[BG SQ5]

Very nice!

I 2nd the grill blackout...and probably the mirror caps as well. And for the love of god- PAINTED REFLECTORS!!

Also- is it me or is the passenger side sitting lower?

Guessing it's the slope of the pavement, or an illusion from the angle of the shot... this appears to be in nearly the same spot, just facing the other way, and it's the left side that seems low.

She's a beauty alright!

you definitely need to blackout the front grill lines. +3 on that.

[buggravy]

Gah, that magma looks so good.

[freesole]

Wow man, this looks incredible. Very handsome car with a very sporty personality to it. Great photos too. Must have had a very wide lens to take some of these.

Yeah I think it was the pavement at that dead end giving the illusion that it's not sitting square.

She's a beauty alright!

Very nice.

I know I know! Baby steps. The next phase will be for carbon fiber mirror caps, gloss black wrapped roof rails, and something about the front grille.

Thank you guys so much! My brother is SB Photography and he's done a shoot of every one of my cars. I feel bad I drive the guy crazy every couple of months for pictures. LOL!

It's a great calling card for your brother's business, I'm sure. Having free "intellectual property" can be a good thing when potential customers ask for samples. Besides, if you can't abuse family, who can you abuse?

No no on the carbon fiber. I would go black mirrors.

Lol this is great.

He did a good job on the shoot, the SQ looks awesome for sure.

I think CF Mirror caps can work, there's a 1st guy black SQ with carbon and it looks sharp.

and of course +1 on side markers and grill (man we are ruthless)

[djsnowman777]

that car is sexy as f@ck. hope to catch you on the road somewhere in nyc

Thank you guys so much for the kind words!!! For anyone in the New York area I’m heading to Captree Park tomorrow morning with a bunch of other SQ5s at 9am. Hope to meet some fellow forum members there.

[CoDRoX]

Agree, this is the best looking B9 I've seen so far. Did you post all the pictures or did you miss a few?
My favorite one is the side-on with doors open. Just the right amount of red peeking through from seats, calipers, etc. to create interest.

Thank you! Haha there were 94 pictures of it and I swear I wanted to post every single one of them!! I too love the one with the doors open and the red sneaking through!

Any updates on this beauty?

Ha I thought you’d never ask! Just installed a Europrice carbon fiber & Alcantara steering wheel. It really is incredible in person. Makes me want to drive the car all the time!!

I have a 2018 sq5 in daytona grey. 20 in black painted oem wheels. Tinited front windows to match the back. I vinyl wrapped the window trim and the roof racks. I left the exhaust, mirror caps, and the front end alone. I like the way the chrome “pops”.

Had a 2014 s6 black optic. Too mono tone after a while. Different strokes

Also here are a couple of pictures with the RSQ5 style mesh grille installed with flip down license plate bracket (and guest appearance by my wife's Q3):
