B8 S4 Photoshoot (high res)
 
Some shots I posted on Audizine, I thought I'd post them here to :) I didn't get the lighting perfect, maybe next time.

Looks nice and clean! Any spacers used on the 20x9 and et 35? Also is it easy to swap the shifter? I like the looks alot.

No spacers or adapters for the wheels. I ordered them with tires mounted and balanced from elementwheels.com. They threw in wheel blots and locks. We don't need to add tire pressure sensors since Audi doesn't use those with our cars, its built into ABS or something. When the wheels arrived about 3 weeks later (Ace custom makes them), I just popped them right on. They arrived perfect, not a single scratch, I wouldn't have accepted the delivery if they did.

The shifter wasn't too bad, but if you mess up, its expensive. The shift boot pops right off using a pry tool and then you remove a metal brace with pliers. After, you use a heat gun on low, heat up the plastic rod and use pliers to twist it, a little at a time, cooling and re-heating each time, until its twisted 90 degrees. The heat and twist should take about 30 minutes if you take your time. When twisting it, it leaves some burs, which you just sand down a little, and then pop the new shifter on.

Thank you for the info. The shifter looks so good! The stock shifter is the only thing I didn't like about my model year....I'm so tempted to do this. You did an awesome job with the shifter.
