Got this near the start of the year to replace our Golf R as the sensible grown up car. The Golf R was a great car but after supercharging my Zed it felt slow so we opted to go for a nice big comfy cruiser as me and the Mrs have always liked the A4s.

We were well chuft with the car but the standard back end just let the look of the car down with the one pea shooter exhaust and a million badges. A quick de badge and we decided it would look much better with with the S4 back end. Audi dealership said it wasn't possible and would need a full new back end but looking at the drawings for the car it was clearly only the diffuser that was different so we picked up a second hand one and tidied it up then booked into stainless creations for a custom exhaust to finish the job.

Wee video of it, well worth the money sounds much better now.
Next up was to ditch what was left of the chrome so the badges got changed for purple ones as per the Mrs colour choice. The front badge was a ball ache to get off without damaging anything, nowhere near as easy as the youtube vidoes make it look. Shortly after this the brake calipers got a lick of the same purple.

This is as far as we have taken it so far. The plan is not to mod this too much and keep it a sensible car.
