Default Wow

As an owner of an A4 B5 that needs a lot of work I am absolutely blown away by the work you have done on this vehicle and the spectrum of your skills. I have considered many different visual options for the B5 and never in a million years would I have thought this possible. Every time i see a different angle of the car I have to remind myself its the same car because each angle reminds me of a different generation. Here is to you sir! Truly amazing work!

Thanks man I appreciate that, its a lot of trial and error, and also having an eye for the way a body line will roll off the new headlights and taillights into the rest of the car. Its been fun so far and hopefully be completed sooner than later.

Yes A3 tails.....the inner taillight wasn't mounted in this picture but looks pretty awesome when its all lit up. Gives the car a slightly WIDER appearance overall which is kinda cool for what i'm doing...

are you doing anything with the roof line? the tunk doesnt seem to flow with it very well, but it might be just the picture.

I'm not sure I follow your question? If your asking if I have modified the original trunk lines flowing down from the roof, I haven't had to. could be the picture that doesn't show it, but the tails meet up at the same lines as the b5
