Yeah, you've got a problem. If your rotors turned blue, then they got excessively hot. Here's some guidance on the subject: Why Do Brake Rotors Turn Blue? | eHow

The front is very different...and I can't tell if I like it or not. It might look cool if the silver stripe continued from the side of the headlight to the wheel arch.

My thoughts: Im not sold on the silver wings under the headlights. But it could grow on me. Everything else looks outstanding! Fine work even if not to my liking. There's just a lot of silver going on up front.

I did a resonator delete on my car today. It does not have an X pipe and I think I like it more without it.

Lol...or worst, that I lived in your hood.
Having installed a Flowmaster series 50 onto my lame, plain Silverado 1500 six months ago. And turning that lame 1500 into a semi-beast. That made me realize what an aftermarket/performance exhaust can do to transform the aural pleasure of riding and not just driving.

Hence, the research and the installed AWE on my S5. Gives the car a nice exotic sound and pleasurable ride. The system is not cheap, but given their customer service, R&D, quality stainless steel, welds and tips, it makes selling them used, on these enthusiast forums, when returning to stock quite easy. As my PU brought home the one piece oem exhaust.

Nice plate - but maybe think about a new frame for it. Audi Sport frame perhaps?
