Looking for pics...

I was wondering if the Abt exhaust tips are DTM style w/that upward angled cut. Does anybody have pics of an A4 (preferably silver) with an Abt exhaust. How bout pics of a silver A4 w/Abt A26's/Abt bodykit? Also, any pics of Abt silver interior trim on onyx leatherette? And lastly, pics of boost gauge installed on A-pillar? Doesn't the airbag cause a problem here? I was thinking about doing these mods but would like to see some pics and get some input... thanks in advance.

Re: C-pillar?

oops... I mean A-pillar, sorry bout that.
That's the cleanest boost gauge install I've ever seen, as far as A4's go! What gauge pod did you use and is that OEM cloth covering it? Where did you get the materials (minus the boost gauge) and was the installation hard? I think I want to duplicate your setup, if you don't mind. Great help with the airbag pic too! Thanks for the pics...

It's all custom...

...I used a 2-5/8" gauge pod from a late model Integra and trimmed to fit. See my FAQ. No, it's not the OEM fabric. The OEM did did not have the ability to stretch far enough to encompass the whole pod w/out seams, but I did locate one that did w/ a similar OEM texture. The tech and service manager I spoke w/ a few days ago complemented me on the project saying that it looked stock, like it came from the factory as such. Keep in mind, that the final pics shown in the FAQ were done BEFORE I located the one currently shown.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/int30.shtml">DIY gauge pod FAQ</a></li></ul>
