Default Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah folks! I got my car back from karosserie on monday...

I was really nervous about matching the Suzuka Grey paint, but i couldnt be happier. they really did an amazing job. the paint matches better then the factory! here are some quick snap shots of the car which is now lowered, spaced, exhausted and de-v8-badged. i am still waiting for my e-codes to show up from Euro Audi Parts, but i am sure they will be here soon. Can't wait till spring...I fear all hell may break loose on the modding front.

Default Damn, the BBS LM's look sick on the white, I wanted to go with LM's at first, but went with DPE....

Enjoy the holidays and Happy Motoring for many more years to come....

It's pretty low, do you get any rubbing issues?

Default the suspension points are mounted pretty far in so they compress on sort of an angle.

There is no rubbing whatsoever in my daily driving experience. the only time i experienced a tire touching my rear fender wall was when pulling out of my garage where the asphalt on my driveway has settled creating sort of a drop. but its very minor nothing like the h&amp;r coilovers on my s4. besides it has more to do with the 20mm spacers then the lowering springs themselves haha.
