Default I was thinking of the S6 trim because it is black..

I think it would look good with the cashmere, maybe. The car is a 98, the antenna was removed by the previous owner. There is a piece of rubber where the antenna was, I'm thinking of having it filled in and painted if it's not to expencive. As for the mirrors, it's funny, I like them on other cars, but I'm not sure if I'd like them on my car.

Default Thanks ... I am moving back to Laguna Beach

The "General Lee" look was done for the Texas crowd. It made me fit-in better.

Just Kidding the Texas Audi guys have all been great.

Default Next to CarbonLords, this is the nicest looking 98/99 that I've seen. Don't change a thing!!

The RC's, c.corners, tint and sport susp. are a work well together.

I wouldn't add any more chrome/aluminum than what you have. In this case, less is more.

The S6/4.2 trim would be a nice addition. IMHO, the allroad trim and S mirror caps would make it look to Bling/Bling.

Nice work...very sporty...in a subtle sort of way.

Congrats!!!

Default Your car might look like this

My color is very similiar, tinted windows, and the small side mirror cap (chromed version):





You can get them on ebay.de, do a search for "S8" and you'll find a guy who ships world wide for buy it now 80 euros. There is a procedure on audipages.com on how to install.

Your car looks hot!
