Default McGyver

I finally debadged the beast. Left the side RS4 on the rear doors. Your fill-in looks great. What did the shop use for filler?? The color match looks perfect.

I did not want the attention of the RS4..I leave that the the M3 guys...Too many of the folks I work with..nurses, techs, even other docs pay too much attention to this stuff. I could care less if someone else knows what I'm driving, I drive it for my own pleasure, and this car is tough to beat.....I have noticed since I debadged I don't get as many of the sti's/Zs trying to race me up a busy interstate. Also, when I blow by em I get this wtf is that look...



send me a private email if you can..

I'm going to wash/detail this thing this weekend, then post a few pics

Thanks.....

Default How can anyone not know that it's not a regular A4? Those exhaust pipes alone, the fender flares

from the rear...

It just boggles me that anyone would really see it as an A4 when looking straight at it. Especially the people you describe.

Default Never seen anyone mistake it for a Jetta

I'd say nobody mistakes it for a Jetta. Does a Jetta sound like an RS4?

Audibles alone make this car stand out. I have people mistake it for an S4, but not a Jetta.

It was a facetious remark. Sorry, Ben, it's Friday.

Default With Your Milltek...bet it gets mistaken for an F-16 more often than a Jetta..

On that note, I was behind a Ford GT last weekend....I heard him from 9 cars back.....
