    he needs to change those lug bolts asap, I think it's a mismatch with the nice wheels he has.

    Simply amazing work! I'm really starting to like Audi, to the point that the next car replacing 325Ci very well may be an Audi...

    Damn! That S4 is gangster! I have always wanted a S4 and man the after shots just make me want one even more. Excellent work guys!

    BTW the sonax is looking more and more tempting too. Did you agitate it with a brush or just pressure wash it off?
