My S6 is almost done...some photos
Got my S6 about 6 weeks ago. I installed the Escort 9500ci (radar and laser shifters), Huper Optik tint, Milltek exhaust, and had the wheels powder coated and the grille painted. Next week I am going back to my mechanic to have have them fab a cold air intake (I would welcome any ideas for set-ups that people really like for this...have seem good reviews of MSDS filters and a couple examples of CAI's elsewhere on the site).

The jammers work very well so far. I have put almost 4k miles on the car since I got it with no tickets. The vast majority of my driving is on the highways of NY, CT and MA where there are lots of traps everywhere including laser. Most of my driving is not crazy - I'll toss the cruise on 85 and get up to 90 in different spots as I manuver through traffic and no issues at all. I think at much faster than 85 or so and the cops will pull you over if they see you even with no radar/laser reading (or so I'm told by a friend who is a state trooper) to give you a hard time if nothing else. For me, I wanted to be able to make good time on longer highway trips without getting tickets and that's exactly my experience so far. I'm definitely not a street racer type who drives 70mph in 30mph zones, so for that type of driving its hard for me to attest to their effectiveness.

Grille & Wheels - Mario/Robert, www.proformanceindustries.com
Exhaust and CAI - Mike, www.tyrolsport.com

I agree on the spacers. Do you have a recommendation on spacer sizing and where to get them? I have never used them before - any issues with them changing performance or causing issues at all with the car?
