Default Beautiful Weather, New Pictures!

Went for a cruise yesterday after work and ended up taking a few pictures around a building I've always thought was kind of interesting over on the west end of downtown Des Moines. A few recent changes on the car include tinted windows and smoked side markers, and I also completed debadging by taking the quattro badge off the trunk. Coilovers will be next month. Enjoy!

nice man....

Your car looks great!

it's funny that your license plate says STD....lol

a bit lower with a nice set of wheels would look amazing....

either hit your lowers with some back to black or think about painting....

just some thoughts...clean whip!

Thanks guys! Like I said, I'm going to order coilovers next month when I've got the money for it, and by the end of the year I hope to be able to get a set of 18" B7 RS 4 replicas. Probably also in the next month or two I'll be painting my lowers. I've got an M3 lip spoiler ready to install and paintas well, but I'm kind of going back and forth on if I really want to break up the car's profile there or not. Thoughts?

Skip it, they look stupid and your car's profile is awesome as is. I love the mirror caps. And the tint. And the debadged look. And the new lights. Okay, I like it all!

Are your wheels dirty in those pictures? Mine got a lot shinier and silverier when they were clean.

Yeah wheels are dirty; it was kind of a spur-of-the-moment photoshoot. That's also why the lowers are a bitmessy
