love the car! have a few mod questions in order in which I would like to proceed:
1. tinting -- what is the best tint?
2. APR ecu mod
3. which is the best GPS system that is plug and play (looking at the Eclipse AVN30D currently) -- i get lost a lot
4. later on...h-sports sways -- hard

any and all advice greatly appreciated and if anyone knows a good person in LA to perform these please let me know.

THANKS

Good to have another one in the area.

Tint: Formula One Ceramic. Great optics, warm tones.

Do the H-Sports before the chip (IMO). And are you Tip or Manual? From all I've read, a tip-chip is more important.

Throw up some pics when you can!

Arnick: who did your tint and who did your h-sport bars? thanks for the reply!

In my opinion, it should be:

1. H(ard)-Sports
2. ECU
3. RNS-E (to maintain OEM look)
4. Tint

I'm out of town and don't have the name of the place for the tinting - but when I get back I'll send it to you. They did an excellent job and really care. I'd strongly recommend waiting till I can get you the name.

As for the H-Sport install - here's the link to Advanced Motorsports. They're a great shop - nice people, know their audis, their own proprietary software... Just down the 405 a bit... The owner's name is Mark. Tell him another allroad owner named Nick sent you! :-)

I'll get you the tint shop name on wednesday.<ul><li><a href="http://www.advancedmotorsport.com/site/main.htm">http://www.advancedmotorsport.com/site/main.htm</a</li></ul>

They make pills for that attention span problem you have ;-)

Personally, I'm jonesing for an Rs4 - avant. Wonder if we'll ever see it here?
