Default Lowered, Rims, Tints!

So i finally got around to it and decided to start working on my Audi, first thing i did was fix both rear window regulators so i could tint the windows, it was actually cheaper for me to go to the auto dismantlers and pick up used regulators because they gave me the regulators with the window frame so there was no drilling required to swap them out. So i tinted the window 5% in the rear, 50% in the front, cant go too dark in the front because im in California . Next was my rims, they are mercedes rims but i got them for free, im not a fan of them but i cant complain about free stuff. They are 17x8.5 ET 35. The tires are hancook's 90% thread 235/17 picked them up used for 200$. Then of course the HR race springs with factory sport shocks. I decided to keep them sport shocks on and not replace them with bilstiens because i just didn't want too spend the extra money if i didn't need too, im keeping this car as low budget as possible. Sorry for the crappy pictures i took them quick because im going to put on my old stock rims until i can find hubcentric rings for the new rims.
