BTW, just picked up a mystery mod of my own...
It's not a huge secret, but I'm pissed so this is how I'm getting back at you: by purchasing something for my car and not telling you about it until it arrives, YSF! (you secretive fvck)
I'll tell you it's bigger than a bread box though. Enjoy!

ARRGGHHH! I thought I was the only cool one...
because Tgr_Cop is <i>obviously</i> lying about this "mystery mod." Do you really have something on the way? Mine should be shipping tomorrow! I'll give you a hint: It's not C/O's. that's all you get though.

No...
I was really just kidding ... my secret mod is an oem air filter and cabin filter for my 60k service 
For the most part I'm done with mods unless...
Say my suspension needs to be replaced, I will go aftermarket... brake pads or rotors shot, I will go aftermarket... wipers get messed up, I will go with the Aero Wiper Kit, etc.

Ok, some questions.
WTF is this business about Aero Wipers? I hear this all the time and have no idea. I need new blades BADLY! the rubber is starting to detach from the blade on the ends of both.
I always hear that our stock air box works quite well, but is there any benefit to an aftermarket panel filter? And how often should I change the cabin filter? That is all.
Oh, I picked up some NGK copper plugs yesterday from Advanced (you were right, I just had to go to the other side of town to get them). So i'm installing them this afternoon if i'm not too tired.
P.S. I think you might be a little jealous of my new mod. It's kinda rare, not too rare though.

Wait a sec...
MB was joking. I'm serious. I got something cool that should be shipping out tomorrow. I'm not saying it will rival your MM, I'm just saying I refuse to tell you due to your mystery mod privacy! It's the principle, Roman! BTW, I envy the fact that you can afford all the nice things for your car with a job that lets you PW on AW. Can you put in a good word for me after I graduate?!

Um...
I don't know what year the A4 started to come with Aero Wipers... but I don't have them and I want them 
As of now though replacement blades cost me about $3 as I just buy the rubber part and my friend helped me modify my wiper to hold the replacement rubber pieces rather then getting ripped off for Audi's crappy wipers anyway.
The cabin filter I'm just gonna change every 10,000 miles. It's $20 bucks and takes about 2.5 seconds to replace so might as well breathe in clean air.
The other filter I just went with stock instead of a K&N as I have heard the K&N leads to CEL/MIL down the road, so to me it wasn't worth it.
The stock filter is also $20 bucks from ECS so I'll just replace that once a year as well.
Cool I can't wait to see what you got!
Hopefully tomorrow I'm doing an oil change, replacing both filters, and doing the plugs. Should be fun!
