Please post more pics. I would really like see how those RS6 wheels look on the SQ5.

Congrat for the new ride!

Default So Fresh and So Clean

Here are some more photos fresh from the detailers. So Xpel Ultimate was installed full hood, full bumper, full fenders, mirrors and below the hatch. They they then used Gtechniq C5 on the wheels and EXO on the paint. I think i looks amazing.

What exactly are hey doing at the detail shop? I'm not familiar with what you're talking about but it sounds cool. Sweet ride by the way!

How much do you notice the clear bra next to the adjacent panels with the glacier white paint? In my experience the clear bra tends to take some of the sparkle away from metallic paints. I have a glacier white sq5 on order, also for the wifey, who is a bit dissaponted that it appears to have less sparkle compared to other manufacturers metallic whites. A bit worried that a clear film will make it look less metalic.

Like what you are doing with the 4 rings there. I too am going to paint my front one white on the black grill but painting the one on the back black to contrast the glacier paint.

The rings on the front are still silver. They just look white from the reflection of the white walls.
