Having read through a fair few threads etc over the last few months ,well since joining this great site really it has become clear that A4 B7 owners on this forum and other sites aswell are very proud of their cars and lavish endless amounts of hard earn pennies on them at every opportunity they can.

I have read many , many great build threads and the owners of the cars should be proud of there work ,but, after all the time, money and work lavished on those cherished cars , is there still any parts they would really like to purchase and fit , maybe the icing on the cake option or part.

so here is my question for all you chaps , do you have a wish list of parts, or options that you are really looking to buy and fit , or simply hope to buy to become the "icing on your B7 cake"

I have a list , which does to be honest seem to get amended on a regular basis , but the main parts are still on it , just waiting for the time, funding and part to drop into my inbox as they say.

I would be great to see what you all are looking to do and get in the near or distant future.
so hows about putting up your lists.

I'll start off with my List 1D , as that is what i'm on now
a fair few items I wanted have been removed now as I have organised them such as the brembo big brakes etc but still looking for below.

RS4 or suitable high quality aftermarket front bumper complete.
Full performance exhaust
A full recaro rs4 interior inc bat wing seats.
A nice flat bottom steering wheel
maybe some decent Bilstien dampers allround too.

Full TBE,
BBK upgrade (6 Pot Brembo's),
New wheels (Maybe OZ's),
Flat Bottom Steering Wheel,
RNS-E,
Carbon Trims,
De-chrome,

still a few bits to get then guys, hope you all get the bits etc your lists.

Nothing at all hahaha. After spending nearly 15 years of my life building & maintaining race, rally, GT & F1 cars I have no inclination at all to get my hands dirty working on my daily other then preventive maintenance.

I have most of my list done already haha
the left to do list for me contains: the colour change which i wanted ever since bought the car - hate that ****** metalic silver, instal the southbend stage 3 clutch kit which has been sitting in my garage for a year now, FMIC and a good remap.
that it for now.
still dreaming about and rs4 front end ,some beautiful recaros
and maybe one day when performance will require it go for bigger brakes and an upgraded turbo.
 
My WISH list in order ish...
Oil pump :blink:
Spacers
Fmic
345 brakes vented rears (if they fit 18")
Exhaust
Hybrid or gt2260
Probably a clutch before that though!!
Should see 240/260hp which would be sweet considering with just a dpf and remap it launches beautifully with the Quattro
 
Oh and upgrade the headlamps to hid xennons fancy ones haha and an arm rest maybe
But! Iv only owned my house for just over a year and I want a dragstar 650 to turn into a bobber so money doesn't go far while overtime is quiet :-(
