I already made an appointment for thursday to get it tinted 20% all around. I also think I'll drop my rs4 grill in there I'm not a big fan of the kamei's.

I think the Kamei with the badges would look sick but it's all about the rings

If my buddy I'm selling the 2.8 to doesn't want it Ill shoot you a PM.

Also, do you think it would be worthwhile taking it to another shop the day I pick it up to give it a quick inspection? I would hate to miss something and go down the same path I did with the 2.8 (repairs repairs repairs)

If you have a limited time to repair or trade itback in I'd say it would be a great idea to take it out for a good ride run the car for an hour or so tends to heat up the motor and tranny and then see how the cars driving.Then watch all your gauges and get it VAGGED to see if you have any codes.With an Audi with 60,000 miles that car shouldn't have an issues for awhile unless it was beat on with all those mods.I wouldn't wait to long on doing a timing belt though the car is 8 years old. I'd atleast inspect the belt for cracking and ware.I think you should replace it at about70,000 if not soonerto be safe if theres no signsof ware.
