    update, unfortunately Recaro no longer carries the white, black, blue alcantara options so I had to get them custom done.

    take a look

    I got to really clean up the interior we found some nasty stuff under the oem seats, I got to spend a few hours cleaning up some very old coffee stains.

    034 Motorsport X34 Cold Air Intake installed

    034Motorsport's X34 B5 Audi S4/RS4 Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake is the ultimate cold air induction system for the powerful 2.7T engine. The X34 utilizes a large open element filter combined with a beautifully designed carbon fiber heat shield to ensure that your turbos are drawing in cold, dense, filtered air. In addition, every X34 intake includes an ICM relocation kit to neatly move the factory ignition control modules out of sight.

    I got the guys over at Drive Autoworks an authorized 034 Motorsport vendor to get it installed on the same day for me. What was great was it was in stock and they were able to accommodate my needs the same day. Install about 30 minutes.

    I'm a stickler for the details I guess it comes with the territory.

    sick of the center surround around the shifter getting scuffed up so I decided to pick up a set of birdeye maple trim and get it over laid with carbon fiber.

    and so it goes on......

    Got an update that Matt at oCarbon - interior trim pieces just about ready.

    no chance of sourcing any new pieces for the interior so best bet I got them wrapped in alcantara.

    sucks none of the oem pieces are available anymore.

    tired of the faded oem pieces in the car, with no luck finding brand new old stock I decided I had to get some custom alcantara in black - a pillars, c pillars, rear deck lid.

    decided to replace the dp's with the 034 dp's/midpipes/and cats.

    sent them out to Alloy Artists to get them powder coated along with the valve covers and intake manifold.

    In the 2nd video, the guy shooting the video said "... practically built and polished." Does he know what you do for a living? :)
