    I drove the Avant home last night for the first time in ten months. Everything seems to be in order and it drove out well considering. I had to use a sheet of plywood as a buffer to get it back in my garage at home - the subframe wont clear the small step-up into the stall We wet sanded with 3000 and the next step is buffing and polishing which should take place tomorrow night. I'm really hoping to at least have the exterior ready by Saturday - If so I'll be showing at Euro Hangar in Holland, Mi. Trying to put a few miles on it between now and Saturday to make sure she's ready for a two hour haul. Being so low has me concerned for the drive into Michigan as their roads tend to be a little rough. I hope to see some of you guys at the show (with or without my Avant).

    Took the Avant out for a cruise last night and stopped for some


    Anyone know who makes the best wiper delete? I've found a few (mostly on Ebay) and I'm not terribly impressed with the quality. Any input is much appreciated

    I have not been on here recently - too consumed with Instagram but here's what the Avant currently looks like.

    Thanks guys It's a blast to roll around in. I think most people think its a Subie - not a big Euro scene around these parts Wrek, I hope your injuries heal and you get your instagram running again soon

    Damn...amazing paint. I'm guessing it's a custom color? What was done to make this color exactly?

    And what wheels are those? Are they 18" RS4's?
