loved the look of the titanium. is anyone selling the OEM/OEM-style titanium components, like the the exhaust? exhaust looks great in matte blk, like the old RS6 ovals.

Default an option, i guess. if you blast the chrome off and what's underneath is consistent...

...enough for powdercoating. really only need the tips and maybe back to the mufflers.

Default ty. not sure how long i'm keeping the car, but if i decide to go another couple years...

... then i might wanna go for this look, possibly with or without changing the wheels. not sure if daytona + titanium wheels will look too "matchy". haven't dug it on RS6s.

i may go that route too, and agree about the daytona...might be a little too much gray.

Default not possible...

afaik, there is no way to remove this trim without ruining it and you wouldn't be able to powercoat it while it's still on the car. Even if you could powdercoat it, the finish will not stick and it will start peeling shortly down the road.
