I haven't really been around these parts lately, so I thought I'd poke my head in and say hello and give a little update on the car.

To refresh everyone's memory, a few months ago my car looked like this:




In June, it went into Dreamwerks (http://www.dreamwerks.com) in Snohomish, WA for a little work and spent a few weeks looking like a theft recovery.



While it was in the shop, I got an offer to sell my HRE'sthat I couldn't refuse from a guy on another Audi site that I frequent, so those went into boxes and now reside on the other side of the country on an S4.

Meanwhile, at Dreamwerks, the bumpers started to take on a new shape:

Smoothed and molded front bumper into a one-piece. Shaved the tow hook cover. Shaved the top two license plate holes and moved the plate down a few inches.


Shaved the body line through the middle as well as the exhaust cutouts.


After patiently waiting a few weeks, I finally got her out of the shop and a few days later the new 19x8.5 et37/19x9.5 et32 Lexion 201's with 235/35 BFG G-Force T/A's arrived. I slapped them on and here is how she looks now:











Personally, I'm dissapointed in the new wheels and I really miss the stance and attitude the HRE's gave the car, so these wheels will be going bye-bye this winter and I'll be going back to 18x10's (maybe wider ).

 

yes, go wider... and pull the fenders

none the less, still looks damn fine

 

as always Capt you **** looks nice.

 

wow amazing, like the old hre's better of course but the new ones are not too bad

 

The body work looks absolutely amazing and I agree your old wheels gave the car a mutch meaner stance that these one don't.

 

Capt.!!!!

Come back to the zine

 

That is very nice looking but you are right HRS's look better. I can also so say that the ones you have on now also look really good.

 

Thanks for comments guys. I'm currently scheming of what my next wheels will be. All I know is they will be staggered with a huge stepped lip again...

 

ya, I was liking the hre's more.
