I just don't get it. The only people who actually know what an RS4 is, know that your car isn't one and will think your a tool for badging it as such. But you're right, you can do whatever you want

Latest updates
Well since we have been hit with snow the last few weeks I did have an opportunity to get some of the parts installed but at a cost.... During the process one of my side skirts rusted off. Just glad it became unhinged while parked in the garage. I was pissed no less so I ordered some aftermarket side skirts as an impulse but dare not have them installed/painted until we clear the snow season aside from the side skirts, I will be adding Tein S. Tech lowering springs, cross drilled rotors with new suspension. Most likely will be adding a lip kit instead of a full blown body kit but still in process at this point.

what I did with my car today...
Took off the scratches on the front, who knew WAX would do the trick to take off scratches.
Now it looks new. I also polished my front headlights, but I need to find a way to take out the whole headlight and take it apart, so I can polish the inside..so then it'll be clear again. (anyone got ideas how to do that? to take apart the whole headlight itself, i know how to take out the headlight from the car. Ideas on how would be great thank you)
I put my new stickers on. lol... (you dont like it idgaf, lol, if you do, thank you .) I also polished the rear lights, other people sand it if its really bad, mine wasn't just needed a "little"TLC. lol...
did a lil interior dash work, i like the carbon fiber look, then again...im just thinking to make the center dash "matte black" and keep the all the trims of the car carbon fiber.(what yal think?)
Also, i tried to take apart my door, I unscrew the bolts but the handle wont come off, found out that the previous owner freak'n super glued the damn thing! (argh) Also, do anyone know good paint product for Leather part of the door? (I painted my door handles black with DUPLI-COLOR after sanding it with 1000grit its nice. I'll show yal the pictures later)

lol..why waite to put a badge when it'll be put back anyway once everything is done. yal trippin over a damn badge. lol belong or not, its all based out of other's opinions. There are 99% of people who go with the flow, the 1% just doesnt give a fck. I'm one of the 1% people. lol....all that matters is in the end is what I want, what I think, other's peoples thoughts are just other peoples. Me posting on here, is just for those "FEW" people out there who know how to appreciate small things. I'm glad and honored that I've actually saved money to buy this car. There are others out there who cannot afford an AUDI. so a badge that deserves or not? in the end it really doesnt matter, because i still have an AUDI car. lol

"Afford" an Audi. Nothing personal as I said do what you want but a 2.8 b5 isn't really affording much to be using it to boost your ego of oh I drive an audi. That car can be had all day long for under $3k. If you own a $80k S8 then you can brag about being able to "afford an audi".

You realize you can get an "audi" for 100 bucks if thats all you care about is bragging you owned an Audi. You can brag when you buy an Audi of the showroom floor(thats not an A3). SHould of saved and bought an S4, atleast it would of come with the same engine as an rs4....kind of. Im not telling you what to do with your car, or am i telling you that my opinion is god and you need to change it. Just saying that your mis-representing not even facelift (no pre facelift rs4) A4 as something it will never come close to be, and is mega rare in the United States.

Thats like proudly wearing a shirt saying you were part of the state championship winning team for your school when you werent even on the team.
I respect that you wanna do your own thing because its your car but being the one percent just to be different...?
I never understood that, just because you're being different doesnt mean it looks good or is gonna be appreciated. I could shave off the left side of my head to be that 1% who doesnt go with the flow. We aren't being "haters" just trying to point you in the right direction.
