Sweet. The stone driveway is nice. I've thought about doing that but have not really looked into it. Please don't run black wheels. A mild drop and ecu upgrade is all it needs imo.

Out of the box this car has the lowest height of any car I've owned so I'm already nervous. Another drop and I'd be twice as bad.

Just a mild drop. Eibach springs not that aggressive. All of my audi have had eibachs and I never had any problem rubbing. You just have to be aware. Slow down pulling in and out of driveways.

Great to see another Knoxvillian on here. This was the third straight vehicle I've bought from Harper's. The service is so good I usually force myself into one of their brands. Shannon Harper always takes good care of me but Joey and Chris Shore are awesome as well.
No mods for me as I'm normally an OEM+ kind of guy. If I do anything in the future it will likely be an ECU upgrade from APR. Ceramic window tint is going on today (to help keep the black on black cool in the summer) and Harper's (by way of Fat Cat Customs) is wrapping the front in 3M Invisiblehield next Friday.
Let me know when you get it and we'll have an S-car meet up.

Looks like we have similar tastes. I'm looking to do the following upon arrival of my new ride:
- Huper Optik tint
- Bel-Stil Plus Radar (with Radar-Mirror install)
- Xpel Film (i'm debating on doing full car matte application) also from Fat Cat Customs
- APR ECU Chip
Question: why did you opt for the 3M vs. the XPEL?

Congrats and good job on getting one with sport diff, it makes all the difference in the world in corners. Also I have dealt with the 3M and its been really good, but I have also heard good stuff about XPEL

I have decided to go with clear XPEL Ultimate on the hood and bumper. Can't wait to get it on this Friday.
