Default New Audi owner

Hi my name isTom,I bought my blue 2002 Audi A6 2.7T March07. It came with sport package, cold weather package, AT rims, K&N air filter, Bose sound system, GIAC 3 racing chip(i think), and a huge sunroof. I've had 6 cars now: 1992 Chevy K2500, 1992 Dodge Intrepid, 1991 Honda Civic, 1991 Galant VR4, 1997 Jetta GT, and my newest A6. I decided to treat myself to a nice car for once. I am currently active duty US Navy, Electronics technician petty-officer 3rd class andnuclear reactor operator(in training). I fell in love with my A6 the moment I saw it. I bought it off a nice guy who was going through a divorce and had to sell the car quick so his wife would not get it. I bought it for$13000 with78000 miles on it in Myrtle Beach SC. So far I had the windows tinted and that about it. I'm looking into buying some nicer 18" or 19" but I have not been able to decide on a set yet. I've seen some nice wheels with huge lips that really caught my eye recently. If anyone has some suggestions on upgrades for my car please let me know. I just got $3000 as a nuclear field bonus so I have somewhat of a budget for upgrades.

Sweet car, man. I would almost definitely look into new wheels, though. Those kind of look like stock Ford wheels. [:@]

A really cheap, if not free, upgrade is debadging. I love how it makes cars look nice and clean.

Hey, also a newbie who just purchased the exact same as ET3 Callahan. My question is.......what all is involved with debadging ?
