I joined here a while ago but never ended up making a thread. Figured I'd do the intro finally and start my first thread.
I bought a 2006 Audi A4 a little over a year ago after I sold my 2005 Subaru WRX.
Here's some pics of the WRX I sold, which the new owner was hit by a drunk 20 year old and it is now totalled
.
before alignment..
and now........
The Subaru had bigger turbo, full catless exhaust, injectors, fuel pump, bunch of brake and suspension upgrades. It made about 325 whp and about 315 wtq.
Here's the Audi
I purchased a set of BBS LMs used which needed to be refinished badly. I took them apart and hand polished the lips myself which took about 20 hours between the 4 of them. I also sandblasted the faces thoroughly and powder coated them 40% clear. It took about 20 hours between the 4 of them as well. The sandblasting was a huge PITA since they were getting cleared and not color they had to be perfect. One of my really good friends has his own sandblast cabinet and powder coat gun and oven so I did everything myself at his house. I cleaned the bolts up and put them back together and mounted the new tires myself as well. They aren't on the car yet because I have a few more things I need to do like roll and pull the fenders. I'll be sure to post some pics of them mounted up soon.
So far the Audi has Koni Coilovers,18x8.5 +15 BBS LMs with polished lips and custom powder coated faces, Revo stage 1, Paint matched reflectors, Yellow fogs, LED license plate bulbs, trunk spoiler, Brembo rotors and Hawk HPS pads
