[headbang] Haven't posted on here in forever... Some more recent pics of the Avant. Didn't get a chance to take pics of the 2002 last time I had it out. It is getting warmer/nicer out, so maybe soon... (2002 needs 1 Panasport center cap to replace a fallen one).

Heheh yea after both head gaskets on the 12V V6 blew - looked like a shuttle launching into space, andsomewhere around $2k to fix :eek: - I got a SAAB, then a Mercedes, and have since migrated back to Audi.... :p

Boost is better anyway...[wiggle]

Still have the 2002 though, so I'm keepin' it real reppin' the Bimmer world. :D

Not really much done to it yet.. Mostly visually appealing stuff.

Blacked out 2-piece Euro-spec projectors with 4300k HIDs <<< Best mod I've ever done!
Smoked side-repeaters and taillights
LED license plate lights & tinted license plate cover
Projector fogs (newer since the ones pictures, but still want OEM ones)
LLTek grille
Gunmetal-painted stock wheels
Neuspeed Race springs
JUN boost gauge
Custom exhaust I made for $50. Suck it Supersprint.

That's about it for now.... I'm working on getting enough money together for a GIAC X-Chip within the next couple weeks... :D

If I can find ONE Celebration wheel, there are three sitting up at work that I may ninja, :) but I'd need tires still.

Heh, some old pictures of it:





Now the fogs are frenched/yellow.


The old A4 in the background, winter-mode-style. :p


It's now up to 81,000 original miles:




Recaros from the era of the car, of course reupholstered in two-tone leather:


ANSA:


Panasports:

this is how it started


then to this, with pretty much all new body panels


this went in






he shopped the body work out, everything else he did, the car is almost done, and looks pretty sweet so far
