Nam when asking about DP's or other performance mods dont say "_________ is the cheapest right?"
LOL
search a 'lil & make sure that the cheaper ones arent cheaply made/designed.
oh & if you all decide to do the Grand prix.. have fun.. I can hang w/ being given the "blue" flag
for 12 laps.. but 42 ????
PS - where are the other pics of Jeff's door blades??? [8D]

2 pics of the blades, 1 pics of the side-view mirrors, and 1 pic of the car right after the aliens dropped it off.

You definitely need to debadge it now. It will look a lot cleaner, especially with the blades.
Cheers!
BTW, WTF are you doing up till wee hours of the morning? I have a good excuse since I'm heading off to work in La Jolla. What's yours?
AND, I'll be picking up my A3 on Monday evening with its new CAI. Interested to see what it looks like since the guy didn't let me see it and wouldn't let me hang around and take any pictures. He did say that it is a short ram CAI with a heat shield. I hope the the performance gains are good!
Cheers!

I've told you that before.....
I'd almost be willing to bet money that half of my posts are made AFTER midnight - LOL.
I did a partial debadge last night. Along with paint-matching the reflectors which did NOT go well.
Trying to find a solution at the moment, actually.

Love your Alian Pix
as for debading, i found that after yout ake it off, use the bug and tar remover that you can get at pep boys or kragen's, spray it on, wipe it off clean.
i still haven't seen any A3's with a Carbonio CAI yet, i just need some feedback.

The debadge went fine and I used Goo Gone which works wonders.
I was referring to the paint-match reflector mod.
I popped the reflectors out (which is a task in itself if your hands are anything like mine), sanded the numbers off of them, cleaned them, primered them, and then went to paint them using the paint pen that I got from the dealership.
(they did not have any spray cans at the time, so I got what I thought would work.......bad idea)
The paint pen is COMPLETELY useless.
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone and now I'm scrambling to figure out how to quickly get the mod corrected.
It's not a big deal really, but I don't want to drive around with tacky looking reflectors.
An idea occured to me last night while I was debadging......Look closely. [sm=icon_sneaky.gif]
