Hi all,
I got my Akoya Silver A3 at the back end of last year and as I mentioned in my 'hello' post the immediate and only thing I've done so far is get shot of the horrid standard alloys *judder*.
I've replaced them with black 18" Dare LP5's - love, love!
Me & the husband (TTOC'er) are off to see the peeps at Awesome a week on Saturday with Xmas vouchers in hand to get myself a set of Eibach Sportline lowering springs and a LCR splitter so that'll be getting done ASAP.
I've also got some Audi Zentrum number plate surrounds ready to go - just out of interest will my standard plates fit into these?
So basically I'm looking to do some de-chroming. I'm definately doing the back rings in gloss black but I'm undecided on what to do with the front.
I'm loving both of the following pictures (I found them on this site on posts by munchkincoupe & gixxer600k4 so I hope it ok to re-post):
My indicision is whether it'll look too much to do the vinyl between the grills and the trim AND do the wing mirrors AND do the rings gloss black on the front so they still stand out or is it gonna be better to pick which style I like best and go with it?
My original plan was to go with the 2nd pic's style but then I saw the other! haha
Also, does anyone think that doing the front rings in Akoya Silver would make much difference instead of silver? - I just really wanna get rid of the silver.
Thanks soooo much for any input!
