What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

looking very nice, i have to agree sometimes tailgate badges look wonky in pics but in reality they are fine, i think its an optical illusion . You just need to sort out those exhaust tips now chap for some nice straight ones, downer are ok but never really look quite a snice as straight tips , just my input.

Cheers Rob.....I think it's because the tailgate has a slight curve in it as the A4 on the other side doesn't look that perfect either.

As for the tailpipes, I'm just waiting on them having them back in stock.....which should be tomorrow :yahoo:as when I went to order them about a month ago they'd just sold the last set :sob:
 
Well finally made the descision this evening after some good feedback to my A8 rims question to order a set of these, not OEM rims but i think they will look ok and with the thinner spoke profile they will make the wheels look less bulky if you get my drift, going with the 19" flavour as its bigger than what i have at present but not as quite as big as 20" rims, dont really fancy a really harsh ride to be honest and i think 19" on 35's will be just about right.

here's the rims:

Is that 375 euro each or for the set?

Good choice thought mate, I do love those alloys.
 
emailed the guy , i was hoping that is per set to be honest , but more likely per rim.....
 
Finished fitting the springs today.

Not a good picture ( it'll be cleaned this weekend and I'll get a better picture) but it's now got eibach sportline 40/50 and a new MOT!

Get some spacers on the wheels and it will look even beter
 
I did think about spacers but there only a 17" wheel so thinking about get hold of some 18" first if some pop up cheap.
 
Fitted new brake light switch today and hey presto emission control system light, ESP light and EPC light all reset and now no codes showing.
****** brilliant after advice followed on here pointing me in the right direction

fitted my blow off valve today

coilovers, service, and other bits over the weekend
 
had a productive couple of days.

fitted new wiper blades, replaced the knackered recirc valve and fitted a new bluetooth module so now the car goes like it should and the phone works :)
 
I finally got around to changing my drivers seat.

Also fitted new wipers and some fitted mats to replace the crappy ones it came with.
 
gave the old bus a nice old clean up again , have to keep all that road nastyness off it as much as possible at the moment.
picked a nice set of H&R 45mm drop springs care of SemiT (he's a top man) , so spent a bit of time spraying all those joints and fittings on suspension links etc prior to the weekend fit.

went out to make a start on the H&R springs but didnt fancy it in the end so finished refitting the old V8 lump i've spent what seems like forever rebuilding, not an a4 but still worth spending some time on ....

Went out and attempted engine mounts decided I'd go for the thermostat instead Too cold lol and I need a gasket for turbo too manifold so I might as well wait and doo it all in one hit!
 
did you just stick yours on with the tape is on the badge ?

Yea seems to be holding up Aswell. Just clean the plastic thoroughly and apply a bit of pressure. Was going to cable tie Aswell but didn't look right.
 
Might go stick mine on did 2 black s line badges today and did my dash cam but I should spent time to put the wiring away behind the trim.
 
Fitted this today:

Made a nice little difference to the overall drive of the car.

Also ****** just over £30 up the wall, the picture of the above pipes was to fashion my own air intake pipe and it didn't go to plan. Ooh well.
