i have been assured by the owner that the vehicle does not exactly look that good right now :doh:. the winter was rough on his Audi he says. he's booked for a full detail with correction. i'll be working on her the weekend of the 18th and 19th, so give me a few weeks and i'll have a full thread writeup with many many picures.
no they are not chrome. owner is in the process of researching suspension right now actually. it's actually an Audi A6 3.2L. but thank you! it should be a fun job.
