    I work at Curran VW but I've never heard of them doing that. Best bet is to call them and ask them.

    I would hit up BFI for some RS lips. Or even Chris Lane might be able to get some for you

    Using bfi as last resort. Was hoping to spend a little less.

    Real name is Chris Lane. Board name is "chrislane31"

    depending on the lip size you are looking for. your best bet is to find some low offset haggard porsche wheels and swapping them. buying lips new will be expensize.

    Nope, best bet probably be the junkyard or a part out in Classifieds.

    Orange peel can always be fixed

    Otherwise, a new top and a wetsand and you're good to go with that car.

    So i brought my audi in for alignment (b5 a4 1.8tqm) due to serious camber wear. I put brand new tires on my car and have 1,000 miles on them and already showing wires. They are falken 912s, but i still dont see how in <1000 miles that this camber issue could COMPLETELY destroy my tires!?

    Here is the alignment sheet. I feel the car doesn't drive as straight as it used to and they made the camber worse than it was when i brought it in. Any advice on how to handle this? I want to bring it back to the shop to get it fixed since i did pay for it, but i want to have good supporting information. Im not sure how camber can be -2.7 L and -1.7 R when i put the coilovers in and the whole front end has been refreshed.

    The car currently sits at 23.5" GTF in the front. Any thoughts, suggestions, opinions, points to bring up with the service rep would be appreciated!

    Do you still meet in Walmart parking lot in Milford. I showed up one day like 4 months ago. I want to try again. Still no mods except swapping for a RNS-510 in my VW CC.
