Hey Guys,
So I've had my car for just 1 month now and I've managed to get my 3rd modification done. 1st was de-badging and then re-badging with the Supercharged badge; 2nd was the 5% tint; now I bought and installed Matte Black VMR V710s on the car. Stayed with 18" wheels as I didn't want to step up a size and risk denting a rim, plus I saved a lot of money not having to buy a whole new set of 19" tires. One cool thing with the VMRs...I was thinking about putting spacers on the wheels so that they would sit flush with the wheel wells, but there's no need due to the larger size vs the stock. Stock is 8" wide and the VMRs are 8.5"...believe it or not that 1/2" is pretty much exactly the gap that I previously had so now the wheels sit flush and no need for spacers!
Anyway, below are some pics I took last night. Only had my blackberry on me so the quality is not 100%, but you get the idea. I'll take some more pics next time I wash her =)

Next will be a black grill as I believe that will complete the "murdered out" look. Would love to drop it, but it's a leased car and I have to go forward under the assumption that I will not buy it out at the end but will instead return it...so, no drop = ( Also need to take my Passport 9500iX out of my bimmer and hardwire it in this car.

I love your blackout project thus far! Major props!
Not to play devil's advocate, but I've got to play devil's advocate! The blackout grille looks absolutely amazing on these cars!!! And we happen to have them available![Wink](https://www.audiworld.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Also, if it is a lease you could put this in and remove it when you turn in the car, that way you reduce the lease end inspection fee.
