And yes, the roads were just filthy with winter grime, sand, salt, water (it reached 50 degrees today). As usualy, Tint King, a local auto tint place, did a great job! Got 50% 3M film again, since MA is pretty strict on the tint laws.


Here is the beast ready to roll home with the new tint...

And since it was SOOOO nice out, I had to get the bucket and hose out for a cleaning. I also took this opportunity to do a full claybar treatment, and two coats of wax. The results...

Ahhhhhhh. Now, I gotta start re-installing a bunch of stuff that was formerly on my 2.7T. I think later this week, I will install the H-sport sways. I REALLY miss those on the offramps and cornering around town!!!

Default It's a nice "work in progress".

Hehehehe... Welcome to the world of detailing obsession. Need to clear those corners and get the all red tails on. Actually the tinted tails is what I want to see on that bad boy.

"Mmmmmmmmm....the growl."

Default Bah! Maybe later...going to debadge the front however...

got myself the S6 grilles (upper and lower) and that grille does not take the Quattro badge. I'll have to do the Stoney mod and do the sport badge on the front ))
