My least favorite of the audi colors. Your car looks clean though.

Car looks extremely clean, man!! Melange looks a lot better with painted lowers than I always thought it would.

i feel stupid to ask...but what are rolled fenders? i dont see any difference....looks good with painted lowers, and removed lower mouldings.

if done right, rolled fenders look stock. If you look on the inside of your fenders you'll see some metal that is used to provide structural rigidity to the fender arch, but this metal also protrudes and will rub on tires if the car is lowered a decent amount. SO you can roll that metal back and give more clearance for your tires while also keeping the structural aspect. You can also just cut that metal out but then you can bend your fenders really easy.,


thanks cab...

seems like it was done right on that car.

thanks for all the comments, the fenders are rolled on the inside of the fender well, you cant see it from the exterior.
