Correct. Window trim, side mirror housings, top of door handles, grill (border and teeth), and trim around the distance sensors (where the old-style fog lamps would be). There's no chrome. He did a great job. It has held up to a Michigan winter and frequent car washes. The guy did it in one full day and with the window tint, my dealer said it cost him about $1,200.

They are BC Forged 21s. 20x10. 265/35/21. Lowered on CETE module, Aired out, but don't have the full venting hooked up. I keep it almost stock height during the winter.

I also purchased the CETE module last week. Great tool! I did not lower my S8 as far as you did but having the option to change the height of the different drive modes individually and very easy is awesome!

Thanks. I was curious about the grill, that's a lot of detail. Good to know, I plan to run that by my body guy. Thanks again, it looks good.

More stereo upgrades.
New kick panels and A pillar pods for the front speakers.

Changed my midbass from Dynaudio MW-182 10" to Dynaudio Esotar 650 6.5".

Added Audible Physics Brahma T1 tweeters. Kept the existing Audible Physics NZ3AlBe midranges.

Amps have been switched to Revelation Audio. The top amp is a Madison, 5 channel. And the bottom amp is a Dual Hammersmith, which is dual mono blocks in a single chassis.

The big amp is running those 6.5" midbass drivers. The mids, tweets and subs are all running on the small amp.

Nice Stereo! Do the subs brow through the ski sack hole? You do all the work yourself? Haven't thought about doing audi stereo. All my other vehicles and boat have systems thou.
