Nope, Im on stock sport struts and H&R race springs. Just got a nice deal on a bilstein sport strut/neuspeed race spring combo so I can finally reaplace my strutss. So if anyone wants some neuspeed race springs let me know!

Here's my goodies that went in yesterday

I've been waiting forever for an rs4 grill haha

To be honest I was a little unsure about buying it at first because I thought an s4 grill might go better with the "style" if you will of my car but damn do I love that mesh.


Okay so here's the problem I have though. When I bought the head lights for some reason I didnt bother asking if they came with the bulb/bulb holders and of course they didnt. I wasnt too concerned because I got an accidental gift of 35w 3k HID's last christmas that I figured would work great here. Only problem is I have no idea how to mount the bulbs and heres where I need help!

Here's a couple pictures for size reference

I'm holding the bulb towards the camera here just to show the size of the base of the bulb


And for some reason I just cant think of the name of what that rubber piece is called, but this is just showing that it's the perfect size to seal up that hole.

I definitely felt good buying a clutch and it was a little weird haha. I just went with the clutch/flywheel kit from german auto parts because of a real good price and its claims are about where I plan to be at power wise.

Papa dios may be one of the only ones to know, so for those of you who dont


5 speed swap is starting tomorrow!
