yeah i did mine like that. it does get alot of attention i must agree with you on that.

 

Nope, haven't had time to put the lights in yet - going to get the HID kit installed into the headlight housing tonight. also going to call around and see if any of my buddies have a grinder I can use and see if I can find a garage for a couple hours.
Where did you mount the your ballasts?

Here is a link to what I'm talking about for the coolant tank - just looks better than the old orange one.
EBAY LINK

 

Looks radical in a far out way. NICE.
What did you use to clean under the hood?

 

Thanks for the link to the coolant tank. You can get a grinder for around 20 bucks at Walmart. It's a good investment man....since i have bought it, I have used it a bunch.

As for where I put the ballasts- On the driver side.....you can see it in the pic above. Look right behind and to the right of the powersteering resivour. It almost a perfect fit. (*edit*-when looking at thecar from the front,it is behind and to the left of the power steering resivour).For the passenger side, I mounted it using a the bracket where the stock air box bolted up too. I guess if you have your stock air box, you wont be able to fit it there.

I cleaned the engine bay with orange bright engine cleaner. It was 1.99 at autozone. Then I just rinsed everything down with low pressure from the garden hose (I covered the battery, air intake, maf, ecu and icm. After it dried up, I sprayedthe Mothers version of armor all on the black parts.

 

youa re on NWQ arent you?! Car looks great. What kind of FMIC?

 

Can't say that I am on NWQ....I don't even know what that is.[&:]If it is a forum, the answer is no. Ionly have anacountwith AF, but I do spend time lurking onthe zineand audi world.

Thanks, and it is the racetec FMIC from supremepowerparts.com.

 

wow... that is one clean B5.... love the drop and the wheels.... i think those look great on the B5's(s2k's for example)... +1 for a new coolant bottle though... the engine compartment would look brand new with it....

 

sorry at a quick glance i thought this was the same car. pretty close

 

Looks so good.

What wax do you use? Your car looks soo nice and shiny.

Gotta love a nice clean b5, nice mods too. Thanks for posting!

 

Thanks acetrebo - I clayed the car..then used Meguiars cleaner wax, followed up with Meguiars Gold Class liquid wax. The wax application was done withan orbital buffer.
