Default They work ok... here is my PERSONAL rate on them...

For the caractere bumper... paint match during daylight (under sunlight) is about %99 satisfied and paint match during nightlight(without sunlight) is about %95 satisfied...
Fittment of caractere bumper is %95 satisfied...

For the S4 rear bumper... paint match during daylight is about %98 satisfied and paint match during nightlight is about %70 satisfied...
Fittment of S4 rear is %90 satisfied...
I claimed my bodyshop about paint match on S4 rear and they told me that it's because they have to use different kind of primer for rear bumper. It sounded to me like... "Just live with it"... and of course I understand the limit of body job... so I decide to just admit it...

I would still go there if I need to, because I've experienced about 4 bodyshops around philly area and I'd like to give highest point to Mac Lens Auto Body.
total installation(front & rear) took about a week if I remember correctly. and... it was about $1600 ($800 front + $800 rear) for painting and installation. To me... it was little bit more expensive than other bodyshops where I've experienced, but I still would like to go there, until I find better body shop...

Default Before you mount it check the weight

Looks like a wheel from AWS in Italy. The beveled edge on the spoke goes all the way around the spoke like a Celabration wheel. If I remember corectly they are 32plus pounds?

Default they are already installed...

If you are right... it is indeed a heavy rim.

Default Thanks..good to hear your satisfied with their work. There are a couple shops in Philly (long)....

that do good work, it's just a matter of how much you are willing to spend. The work on your car looks good from the pics, and that seems to be the going rate for kit installs. There is a place around the corner from my work Karosserie, they do excellent work. I'm going to get a quote from them but it will most likely be more than I want to spend so I might go to Maclen's instead, Verna's in south philly has been recommended by Audi Junkie numerous times so I will check them out also.
