    Ive been wanting to make this for about 2 years now but havent since of set backs in the build of my car but.... after a long love hate relationship me and my b5 are ready i think still alot to come but at least now i have paint even though the shop that did the paint an@lly raped me with a flag pole on the price and the quality is kinda ****ty if you nic pic it

    This timeline will slowly be whored throughout this weekend and more and more info will be added as i add pictures

    To start this whoreing im gonna start with pictures of the car as it sits now and then go to where i started building get come back to where it sits currently- btw this is my build car so it gets driven very rarlely nice days only and shows

    Yes i was at H20 this year but it was the worst trip of my life and i barely made it and i got no love cause i had 3 different wheels on and no one noticed the small details that i slaved to put into this car but F it thats what a timeline will do!


    Yes it is Rear wheel drive

    i built this car on my own in my garage i started with a shell from new jersey that had a blown 12 valve in it. along with parts from my 97 DD that i beat to hell

    I stripped the car down to nothing but the bare shell and no interior(carpet,dash,radio and all associated wiring) and started to go to town and slowly bought parts


    All suggestions and comments will be appreciated

    its not to bad to do other than the carpet that blows but if you do go with an s4 headliner and you have a preface you have to buy an s4 sunroof also alot of people do not know this


    and if you want i can get you better pictures and answer any questions if you wanna pull the trigger and go for the swap

    Car looks great man! Only thing it needs is S4 skirts like someone else already said. Colors work really well together, i think this is the first Non-silver grill rings that I like

    love both designs, def have a good taste i would go with the first ones, because i havent seen anyone run them. Stick to 18s for b5 chassis. 18x9.5 18x10 would be tits

    who makes the first wheels btw?

    bronz are you reffering to the rs4 reps or the mercedes reps? yes their both some cheapo wheels but thats cause i was to involved in getting paint on this thing and making it to h20

    and i was wondering about the whole 18 19 thing i think the only reason i liked 19s is because on coils i could have a safe ride height and still get the lip of the wheel to the arch

    hahahaha ya i was ripped and i stayed ripped all weekend cause i was so upset on how ugly my care was it had Two gold rs4 reps up front 15mm spacers, driver right rear had a 97 stock sport wheel silver, and the passsenger rear had a 5x100 adapter 35mm with a vw steelie

    on the way down in the middle of the 5 lanes of balitmore my front left and front right sidewalls blew out of brand new cooper zeon's with less than 100 miles on them!!!! Ruined the wheels bent all to hell


    the car was driven for the first time "legally" in a little over 2 year just 8 days before h20

    because the shop that painted my car took 9 months to do it and i shaved and did all the sanding and bodywork and bought all the paint which was a total of 1,900 and they charged me 6000 dollars for a fckn 1000 work
