Default NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

It looks good...a little too much black out for my taste, but I was planning on ordering those same HRE's but in a different finish and the GT brakes with red calipers. Back to square one again....

Default Personal preferences...

An A8 is a beautiful car as is... and one of Audi's core competencies is about the aesthetic. I can see changing wheels for a different look but at some point customization becomes a caricature of what was intended by the original design.

Default Who cares if someone else has it, do what you love...

I'm not so sure about that those pics anyway...
the exhaust tips look a bit photochopped.

Default Black is a good base to mod from.
