Call me crazy but i like them. I like the blue contrast with the stock silver paint.

One fringe benefit was the discovery of a rather disturbing fracture in the bolt surface of one of my front rotors. I would never have found it if i had not been dinkin around with frivolous and unnecessary mods.

 

are those 2.8 wheels on a 1.8t?

 

Looks good.

 

i dunno. I am still learning new things about my car all the time. I know they are stock 16s of some kind. I also discovered Blistin dampers and a 19 mil rear anti-sway during this little adventure. yay. its like christmas. The original purchase papers say that it has the sport package. maybe thats where the sway bar came from.

 

is it a 97? b/c those are the 1.8T sport wheels for that year

 

Yeah. It is.

 

I painted my calipers blue on my old car. It's a volvo not an audi but still it was silver with blue calipers.

It's hard to see because this pic sucks but just to give you an idea:

 

A for effort, but not a fan of blue calipers. too rice. Also not a fan of volvo's w/ body kits. I think volvo, i think jewish mother mobile.

 

Hahaha... wow thats a post for the forum. Wouldn't be surprised if you get flamed for that one.

I am with him though on the volvo's wings on the front lip... eck. I don't think the blue would look that bad, just as long as you have some wheels that actually make the caliper stand out. Whats the point in painting them if you can't see them?

 

yea that was my first mod car and i got a bit carried away. In retrospect I wouldn't put a body kit on it again. They're such a pain in the ***. Plus I spent money on the kit, then to paint it, then it got totaled about a month later.. Oh well, learned the hard way I guess.

I have an Audi but I like volvos. For some reason volvo peeps dont like audi peeps and vice-versa. I know this is an audi forum but this site has some nice looking volvos if you're interested.
