Hey guys, I said i was going to keep my Audi stock but the Mod bug has bitten me again. I am debadging tonight. I am also planning these other mods in the next few weeks
Painting my Brake Calipers red. I bought the paint back when I had my Mustang and now am going to use it on my Audi. I have a silver car so i think the red will look quite cool.
I broke one of the housings on my wing mirrors, so i am considering a set of Chrome ones for the S line look
Tinting with 30% all around
LED taillights...
And possibly a fresh coat of paint for the front bumper.
Cool man, debadging is the only thing Ive been able to do to my car (free haha), sucks beign a poor college student. Do you have upgraded wheels? Personally I wouldn't paint the calipers unless I did, also I would be hesitant to paint calipers in a stock brake setup, but again thats just my personal opinion. Chrome mirrors are cool, and tint is a necessity (saving up to do mine).
Return the caliper kit, and exchange it for a can of duplicolor 500 degree paint. You'll get a few bucks back and still have a great finish to the calipers. I spray the paint into the cap, and use a 1" foam brush from Lowe's to apply it (after cleaning them with brake cleaner and a stiff bristle brush). Here's the finished product:
Before:
After (4 coats of paint, no clearcoat):

Gotcha - well if you've already got it and can't take it back, it's not like it's a bad purchase. I was just hoping you got it recently, as you can do the job for less cash is all.
