Hmm not sure how I like the S4 bumper. Something doesn't look right to me.

Yeah been thinking all about it I will rock it for a while might just find a stock one again but, like the more agro look it gives it. I am just getting ready for a FMIC and have it look cleaner

I had a noise in the front end I could not track down. Long story, but finally ordered new shocks and shock mounts. Got the old ones out, mounts looked perfect. After 205,000 miles, no cracks or anything. Squeezed the springs and swapped it out any way. That was it! Noise is gone.

I know that here I have been doing a lot of work on my B5 but, just got more done on it....I had a new chain tensioner so I tore apart my Audi once again....I can't stop lol it is a beast....I can say that I put in the cam chain tensioner and put on new gaskets and cam rings and damn the car runs so good now. I still have a lot more to do but, loving it. I just hit 167K the other day and was excited at how clean the motor looked with the cams out. Now to pull of the intake hose for my turbo and see if the shaft is playin' hmmm hope not.

Well it IS missing grilles and filler plate. I think the shade is slightly off too, bumper looks like it's a bit lighter silver. Also not sure how well that dent will come out since it's not made of metal, but overall not a bad pick up for $120

never ordered from them but I believe they are a site sponsor for Audizine so you should be good.
