Just bought a new hood support strut and slotted rear rotors from ECS. If anyone is in the market, they have awesome deals on brake rotors right now

I removed the front bumper lip and lower grills, washed them up nice, then stained them with "Forever Black" dye. I also removed the front license plate mount. Now I have some holes to patch up in the bumper from the bracket. But, I washed the car and put it all back together, and the front end looks infinity more clean now. I touched up some of the larger rock chips with some black touch up paint, but it's too dark for my car, so it still looks out of place. I will have to order some actual Audi touch up paint once I figure out my paint code. I also installed my AudiForums.com sticker (finally). I'll post a pic in the "Show us your sticker" thread.

Finally got rid of the rattle that made my car sound like an old non-maintained Suburban.

The spring on the passenger-rear inner brake pad wasn't seated correctly against the brake caliper, so that brake pad could slide back and forth against the brake caliper carrier, making that awful rattling noise. So happy about that!

Also switched from softest to middle setting on my Neuspeed rear sway

Lowered the drivers side rear and dialed in the height. 22 1/4" front 22 1/2" rear. Very happy with the ride comfort.

Washed and driven today, too.
