wow, even you cant make that car look good.

Vehicle critique

- reverse rake needs attention
- badgless grille has to go
- clear corner/smoked housing mod needed
- wheel spacers needed

pictures themselves came out good.

votblindub get to work!

Agreed, everything Brett said would make the car look better, badgeless grill looks fine though. Personally, I’d strip the trunk emblems to compliment it.

well, the rake will be fixed after i sell some extra wheels and tires, so i can afford to get a coilover suspension. i wanted to go lower as well, so this will be addressed.  
i was thinking about pulling those amber peices out of my lights. im trying to figure out how to get that out without “baking” my headlights in the oven.  
wheel spacers will be ordered soon!  
idk about the grille. what do the rest of you guys think?

Also, HUGE thanks to Dan for comin out and takin pics! :thumbup

the amber pieces you drill out and break and vacuum out the chunks. the grille seems cheesey. if anything, i would do the rings black. and either ditch the lower chrome, or get the chrome strip on the grille back.

oh and put the tow hook back in your emergency kit, capt fan boi. the missing lower grille looks out of place on a luxury car.

yes but where the reflector is bonded to the housing you still need to drill it out, nick did it on the S4 and A4. then you just seal the holes up to keep moisture out. so you will see small holes, but better than orange reflector.
