Default Whats the split on De-badging......Car is (still! ...long story) at the bodyshop..

should I tell them to not put the new 2.8Q and A6 signs...
I always thought that was kinda cheesy..but now that I think about it, it might look ok..Specially with the 2003 rear bumper and exhaust tips..what do you guys think

Default I agree w/Jim-leave the rings only -check my sig (99 Avant)

I've got the Audi stainless steel tips on it, but don't have a photo yet.

Default Leave them off, you can always add them later (m)

I would first take a good look at the car without the badges, I think it looks cluttered with anything more than just the rings.

Default Kam: You should do the 2nd fog light mod while your rear hatch is apart?

Or you could have them order the plastic license plate housing that is from a 2003 model year. The 2003MY is 2nd fog enabled.

Good luck!

PS - I still waiting for someone to rear end my avant so I can add the 2003 bumper. I am soo jealous!!!!

Default We concur.

I think I'm going to have those pipes bent soon for the straight resonator back exhaust. I need to take some pics, sound clips of the magnaflow setup first though : ) Hopefully early next week.
