    Let my girlfriend borrow it while her WRX is in the shop ...I make her take pics of it when she starts it, parks it, and drives it home...oh and she has a lead foot.

    Yesterday we had a 15 minute conversation while she searched for the hood latch lever to check the oil for me...she's bright.

    I still don't get what's holding my car up when I'm fully aired out in the back and it's not bottomed out.

    It's not even that low... If I bring up the front just a smidge, I can roll like that. The rear suspension flexes without feeling like it's bottoming out, but there's no air in the bags. I don't understand.

    For a quick color change, it's not bad. Just met up with my friend Sunday before he left for basic and he had his M3 dipped blaze orange. Some photos I thought it kind of resembled a M3 GTS orange... up close it was like a moving traffic cone lol definitely a head turner

    Bought this:



    So I could stop dailying this:



    Because I keep making these:



    Can't sell it though - saved up for that MKIV since I was 15. 22" FTG, 3 Piece ACT NX's, Frame Notched, Extended Control Arms, Motor Mount Spacers, 262 Cams (still need to put in). Needs chains and a header back, along with full shaved euro bumpers all around. Getting there though.

    Picked up the A3 last month (49k on it and its an '06) - since then done APR Intake, Forge DV, Yellow fogs, and yesterday I picked up the APR tunes (Stock, 91, 93, Valet) on sale. Bought this to be an untouched daily, but its getting air ride and wheels over the winter Oh well. Two projects are better than one I guess

    '13 A3 Ti Quattro

    Dipped some emblems and the wheels, ended up removing the plastidip from the rims.

    10-10-2012 09:50 AM #2412
    Nice Wash


    PlastiDip Friday

    All jacked up

    I Dipped the rims but didn't like the look so I removed the plastidip. OEM rims look nice silver instead of matte black.

    I enjoy your emblems but you shouldn't have re-applied anything but the rings, IMHO.
