What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

Touched up paintwork, investigated boot latch fault, oil filter change, re aligned headlight, modified the glove box damper, twisted wires for the brake pad light, removed the old **** phone cradle from beside stereo, lubed all hinges and locks and probably more.
I did twice as much as that yesterday !

Do like the look of this, nice stance as well
 
My reply about it being exactly the same as a rs4 was in reply to the comment about looks/stance.
I could of bought a 2008 rs4 convertible but I don't race around the streets and 15mpg is no good to me.
 
lmao, i wasn't implying any thing mate, i was just being nosey, mines only a 140 at about 180/190, every one always asks me what mine is coz it looks faster than it is. do you get **** heads trying to race you when they see your mirrors, when i have mine on people always have a go, they must think they've just beaten a s4 when they pull away, lol really its a 140

Making me cry at that price with discount and then payment for painting and fitting. Think I'll have to live with the orange peel effect I've got for a bit

Liking the noise mate?
Hi mate, yeah the noise is fine. I'm surprised it's not as loud or obvious as I thought it'd be. I had changed the diverter valve previously from c to d, so I think that's toning the noise down. The c valve had flutter but when I changed to a rev d that noise disappeared. I do get the sucking noise & sometimes a phssst on let off but its not too noticeable & that suits me fine. With the stage 1, de-cat & induction kit my standard exhaust sounds good. Well happy, thanks!

:nogarors4:Finally fitted the pioneer avh x3700 dab thanks to Rich @sounds alarming Wallington, top bloke! Sounds a million times better now & Bluetooth music, life is good!
p.s what's the movie?
 
Not a fan of Pioneer but looks good pal!

And the film is Ronin absolute brilliant film!
Thanks carlcall, yeah I really wanted alpine but this came up for £225 brand new with dab aerial. Couldn't pass up on a great deal.

I kinda made it easy with that shot of the film lol. One of my best heist movies along with The Heat
 
Cannot complain for £225....but they must've improved a lot in the last 30 years as that's roughly how long ago I will have owned a Pioneer.

Mate I'm not too clued up on ice, I tend to read reviews & go from there. I'd have stuck with the standard stereo if it had Bluetooth or aux. But the sound quality of the pioneer with a full amp Bose setup sounds so much better, I'm glad I done it.

Spent the morning removing these from the old head, need to clean them up and get them ready for the donor building. Any ideas on the best way to clean them?

 
Fixed my bumper height. Bumper off, headlights out number. Complicated by the adjustment support screws being too corroded to adjust using the torx so had to take the bumper off every time.

That's about as tight as I could get it but looking at the pictures it's not that much different....maybe not the best use of three hours.
