LOVING the denim/denim cloth 225! my only gripe is the shifter feels light and cheap compared to my A4. everything else is pure bliss!

pics will come, to those who are waiting... mod list looks like this:

debadge (leaving rings front/rear)
CC headlamps with smoke lenses, flat black housings
smoke sidemarkers
KW V1
gunmetal w/ polished lip wheels (DTM Kreuz 7 or 10?)
REVO chip
neuspeed SS, maybe a leather boot
medium tint

if i am a good boy, maybe a caractere grille with "matching" mesh (match stock lowers). keeping the rings only.

im lucky to have a car nut wife who lets me mod her cars :-)

Default I suggest getting your smoked side markers on Ebay. I got the exact same parts from TTStuff and

from Ebay, but Ebay was like $15 cheaper.

Here is a link to the poster I got them from:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=795876228 2&category=33715&sspagename=WDVW

They always have 4 or more posts up, so don't ever pay more than the starting bid.

Default Hadn't thought of spraying. Should work. I would suggest you do the "caulk mod" before the OEMs

break (the break very easily, unless you have the redesigned ones with a metal spring.

Caulk mod:

CRAP! Now I see this post. I broke my OEMs, just waiting for the light to go out to break my smoked.

Default I put LEDs in my smoked - they won't ever burn out, and should only not light if the electrical...

connection gets crudded up. Considering the tight fit they had going in, I don't think that is likely.
