2012 glacier white avant (pics)
Pics of my glacier white avant
She finally arrived (name still pending).
2012 A4 Glacier White Avant, PP, Sport, Bang, Advanced Key, Rear side airbags, I think that’s it?
Mods to be done before the end of the year:
ARB (suggestions?) Should I go front AND rear or just rear?
19X8.5 et? wheels (would like somewhat aggressive without using spacers). TSW Nurburing vs Forgestar F14 in Gunmetal. I like the style and lightness of both, im leaning towards TSW as I hear Forgestars take a while to get?
Tires (suggestions, something light? Size, etc)
Racks. Pretty set on the whispbars (this avant sold me) but am open to all suggestions. Also will need 2 bike carriers to go on the racks and am totally clueless so please help here.
Tint. 20% all around unless I wuss out (I am in socal).
Vagcom for simple things like: activate windows with key fob, needle sweep at start, lights, etc… I’ll admit I am not tech savy and the thought of messing with the comp. scares me. I’ve done lots of research but still don’t know where to start.
Mods down the road:
APR stg II tune with test pipe. (wish they had an economy mode like Cobb has for subarus). Although I’ve tuned all my previous cars, I’m hesitant with this one as I plan on keeping it for a long long time. Also, it’s my DD and I’m keeping the 996TT for when I’m in a rush.
Possibly springs someday. I know, I know, but I don’t like it too low.
And now the pics:

I agree it's hard to see a difference between glacier and ibis when they're not side by side. But, when compared you can easily see the difference. I'll try to get some comparison shots with a better camera. In the meantime, here's another crappy iphone pic.

Some comparison shots... i pulled in between an ibis S5 and an ibis a8 i think it was. it was at 12 noon and sun was very bright. I actually had a hard time seeing the differences in person with direct sunlight but i think you can see some.
The glacier white is more shifty depending on the sun/shade and isn't as stark white as the ibis. Either way i love both colors but am very happy with mine
