Badges were purchased from TAG (expensive, but worth it IMO) and the grille was purchased on eBay, but the seller doesn’t seem to have them anymore. If I were to do it now, I’d go through carbnlabs or Mops on this forum for the grille so you are sure you will be getting top quality stuff.

Wheel shot since I finally had a chance to clean the car today. Also used P&S Bead Maker, tons of positive reviews for a reason.

thanks! Unfortunately, I curbed it at a drive through at 5am getting coffee before work this morning. Having it refinished, but since it's a brushed titanium look, they might have difficulty matching it exact. While they're doing it, I'm having my wheels ceramic coated, and calipers painted in a turquoise color. Decided to try out a color not seen as often.

i think the turquoise will be sweet with your color- your center caps are pretty close to that now.


more goodies here..

I just noticed your box is from Variant. What wheels you go for? I painted the logos on my center caps myself. It turned out great. Wanted a different shade of blue, and now with turquoise, I think it will go well together.

ah.. very observant! A true fisherman. I was hoping to get them on and get pics but since you caught me, they are Variant Krypton in super Black Chrome. 20 x10.5, will ride on the 275/30/20 HancookEvos.

that’s what caught my eye about your wheels. I was eyeing those up. I have looked at thousands of wheels, checked their weights, bolt pattens spacers etc. there were at least a dozen that I wanted, including so many that members here have posted pics of. I also wanted something unique ( have not seen them on an RS5)
