I am trying to talk my wife into letting me get a GIAC box off Marc as well for my S4, but I have a LOT of other stuff to pay and my wife doesn't work. I support the household on an E-3's salary.

Scott Long 05-13-2008, 09:42 PM Looks good, but did those have a polished lip to begin with? I would have probably left that.
How did you prep them for paint?
01AudiA4 05-14-2008, 03:41 AM MMM Looks very good---I like your plate btw
klum00 05-14-2008, 09:56 AM wheels are looking hot! your car is very similar to a local buddies here, i like the bumble bee look.
audi ops 05-14-2008, 10:52 AM looks like the nicest bbs's i have seen, I don't really care for them at all but yours are fine. We have to do something with that plate though on the otherhand... I try to show the love to german cars equally [8D]
washyourrhands 05-14-2008, 01:46 PM hhaha guys i photoshopped the plate in
my friends got a bimer and i love it jsut not as much as my audi
i jsut love giving him sh!t
thanks for all the kind words
and about the polished lip, i was looking at pictures of the imola with the lip, and it did NOT look good
it almost clashed
lecznar1 05-16-2008, 12:52 AM that looks sick as he11 dude nice job... what r all ur mods on ur car? take her to the track and get the numbers!!

eliTTe 05-16-2008, 09:51 AM I like it, good job!
JackalS4 05-17-2008, 01:06 AM Car looks real nice, stop tempting me with the GIAC though! I'm trying to wait till I get her all paid off first!! :D
readimag 05-17-2008, 08:38 AM yeah love those wheels, nice look for the car and marc he is a great guy to get all your stage 2+ and stage 3 parts from. Washyourhands I would try to get my hands on some ssautocrome dps for cheap and go that way. I have had no problems with them and loved the price more haha. plus i also would recomend getting a 5.0 bar fuel reg if you plan on keeping your k03s for a while and then jsut going stage 3-.
McGovs1.8B5 05-31-2008, 03:31 PM Did you leave your tires on while you painted? If you did, what did you do to keep the chrome look on the rivets? I want to paint mine but don't want to paint those. BTW, car looks great if I couldnt get a nogaro, imola would be my next choice.
EvilA4 05-31-2008, 04:38 PM Sick man! I might paint the wheels I just bought.
Now that you have GIAC in your ride and I have new wheels and tires, hopefully address my brake issues; we will be matched better when Infineon comes up. :D
washyourrhands 06-01-2008, 03:00 AM yeah man cant wait for infinion
im going up to thundeerhill later this moneth!
but i accually completly took all the bolts out and i slid index cards in between the wheel and tire
