A little teaser for now until I can take more pictures, I just snapped these out my window.
Picked up the RS4 grill for $100 on eBay, couldn't resist. Its screaming for new headlights now though
. I also got the 5 spoke wheels and tires for $260. A much needed upgrade for the exterior of the car.
Other mods done that need to be photographed:
Forge 007 DV installed.
Carbonio air intake installed (everything except the cover.)
Red LEDs installed under dash.
Facelift air vent housings installed that still need to be hooked up to power.

car looks a lot better with those wheels. you should lower it before headlights 
by the way the silver rs4 grille trim can be switched with the chrome a4 trim if you like the chrome better.. I switched mine when I had an rs4 grille because I also had the lower chrome grill surround and it matched

Hehe, I'll go take a picture just for you...red glow incoming.
Thanks, yeah it does. Those old 15" granny wheels weren't cuttin' it. These will be just fine until I get a set of 18" TSWs.
I like the brushed look more than the chrome, I'm considering removing the lower trim. I don't think its so strikingly different that I need to remove the lower trim right now, we shall see.
Eventually I'd like to replace the smaller passenger mirror with a fullsize one and install RS4 mirror caps.

From the backseat.
From the outside.
The underdash lights are wired to an OEM funk switch on the dash.
Its gonna look a lot nicer with the air vents framing the boost gauge and adding a little something to the sides of the dash.
