the Aqua blue is replacing the Cobalt blue, however i am having a difficult time digging up the paint code from the paint store, so i may have to go with Cobalt if i can't get it. Either one would look good IMO.

Definitely. Cobalt Blue Metallic is one of my all time favorite colors.

I probably wouldn't be original painting my A4 Nogaro Blue. :P

Sweet; can't wait to see how this turns out!

Still not digging the Boser Blick, though.

i also pulled the passenger front fender last night/this morning. it is not AS smooth as the drivers side turned out, so i'll be tackling it with a hammer and dolly to get it as good as possible before laying mud.

so far its an inch wider on each side

Wow! I didn't know you were actually going to pull those out, literally!
I thought you were talking about adding couple inches with welding some plates.

Regardless, it's looking great though. Are you planning to shave those Audi logo on the front fenders and the side markers or are you keeping those on?

I have the same roller and jack as you do lol. How funny. Have fun with the hammer and dolly. You'll be surprised to see how well it really works.
