Yeah the color is forest green, the dealer said that the 1996 Audi a4 2.8 12v is what brought Audi to the American market, he says I should hold onto it and restore it. But I don't know. And another question, is it even possible to swap out my factory seats with the VW r32 seats?

 

^ It's possible but you may have to custom new brackets for them to fit.

 

Okay cause I really like them. And I'm wanting a lip kit on the bumper and trunk. I gotta lot of ideas running through my head right now on what I wanna do to the car, its my first Audi. Haha.

 

That's great - it's always cool seeing more A4s being modded (provided they're done tastefully). Just focus on aesthetics, handling, looks, and braking. Don't waste your time trying to make power - you'll have the same cost-to-HP ratio as you would trying to modify an espresso maker for HP.

 

some audi's actually have very rare seats in them that most people on this forum have not seen before

i believe this is the pic of the seats ive only seen them a few times

im sure jeremy knows what im talking about there very familiar with the s4 seats

 

yea i had my 12v 96 a4 with the euro trunk and bla blah... but yea there is almost no point in trying to get hp out of that car... just go for looks man... best of luck with it though

 

Thanks guys, yeah I already got a bilstein suspension, lowered 2 inches I think?? The kid that had it before me did the suspension. And yeah I wanna paint it all gloss black with a red offset stripe.

 

Oh and some hid lights, I do need an exhaust tho, I had a bad exhaust leak I think.. its right before the cat. It makes me nervous honestly.

 

The dealer sounds like he didn't know his **** at all... the 1996 A4 didn't "bring Audi to the American market", it revived the brand following years of dismal sales which were a result of the farcical "unintended accelleration" fap involving the Audi 5000.

The exhaust leak is probably a flex pipe; both of mine were pretty shredded. The flex pipe is attached to the cat, so if that's the case you'll have to replace the whole cat which is something like $200 each if I remember correctly.

As for the HID's, check out VVME or DDM Tuning for kits and be sure to upgrade to projector headlights - the DEPO 2-piece projectors with clear corners are probably your best bet (you can see what mine looked like in my sig pic). And please, for the love of all that is good in this world, do NOT paint a stripe on the thing.

 

+999999........ DO NOT DO ANY STRIPES AT ALL!!!.... its a European car not a honda.... no offense man... just my 2 cents
