Wheels look great. Don't mind the facelift except for the badges.. the audi rings front & rear aswell as the SQ7 badge in the cheap looking font. Also, nice options. No upgraded B&O though (which is fine unless you are an audiophile)
And that Color! Gorgeous.

Thanks! The new badges have really grown on me and I don’t mind them as much anymore. It does irk me, though, that it’s completely inconsistent all over the car. Seats, brakes, door sills, puddle lights all still use the classic logo. Just seems strange having both.

Meh. Car is so far from an ideal listening environment that paying $5k for an improvement seems kinda wild to me. To each his own. I’ve found the standard B&O with a subwoofer upgrade and some EQ tuning to be totally passable.

Though
I've never been diagnosed with it, I do think I have mild OCD - that stuff would never fly with me! I would change it ASAP. Glad it doesnt bother you

Beautiful! Too bad you require a front plate.

Oh no. Second thing I did once I had the wheels swapped was pull the front bracket off and install the filler pieces. Much better.

Never understood the appeal of this, haha. Dont drive at night frequently, and when in the car, you can't see it - just another thing to break and I dont feel the need to tell other drives at night that I drive an audi

well it was part of the deal with the car. I was reluctant to get it but when I saw the logo in person before installation and it looked same as anthracite rings, I went ahead with it. on the other note, for my car MMI module is being replaced for the car since wireless CarPlay doesnt work lol
