Default Did MTM do some work after the initial pics?

The rings in the front grill are missing and a sticker has been put at the top of the windshield. Too bad, I wanted to see the shark fin polished too ;-)

Kind of strange to me. Why take the rings off the grille but not the Quattro badge?

Default Re: Polished A8...

If I could figure out how to do that with my car, I'd do it in a second!

Default Start with one (1) D3 A8, one high-speed polisher, and a large pack of wet-dry auto body

emory disks, and a hose, and go to town . . . .

Default Don't forget to paint (?) the --plastic-- bumper covers.

Nah. I'd go for a re-cast of the bumper covers in aluminium. ;-)
