Default Black out grille/Forge DV install.....

Well, there are plenty of threads re swapping out the grille/removing the bumper....just remember, if it's Audi, there are plastic things that will snap off. But for the most part, the bumper removal is pretty much straight forward.
Thanks to Len.....the Forge DV install also went w/o a hitch. Forge does need to include a longer length of vac hose (6' would be just about right), and, that length of 10 mm hose. But I am certain that I am now equipped w the best DV solution on the market for the 2.0 fsit. and, I will never have to replace it :-) Bring on the GIAC! WOO_HOO! Bring on WF!
Thanks to greek, dougie, dnuge and len.....and my wife for cooking us a feast!

Default Look at that nice B6 there

Hey Joe it was a fun day, I'm glad everything worked out for you, the car looks amazing. Don't forget to shoot me an email or PM on DVAG regarding your guy who can do clear bra.

I'm glad I could help you and Len out with the install, let me know about our future detail day.

Default So you punted on the Forge DV and got someone else to do it for you. Question:

How many 6-packs of beer did it cost you?
