Default Just picked up 2012 A4 S-Line and have a few q's

Hey all, just picked up a 2012 A4 P+ S-Line. First Audi and first German car. Coming from Civic's and Subaru's I must say I love the luxury of this car, its so solid. Only 500km on the clock so far and loving every minute of it.

So first question, I love all the exterior lights except for the front turn signals, I don't want to rip them apart, just new bulbs, LED maybe? What are my options?

The only other things I want to do is black out the decals all around and the front grill. Other then that, i think the looks of this car are perfect as is. Don't mess with perfection.

Ya I'm most likely going to Plati Dip the front grill surround and the rear badges. What about the turn signals? Is it a simple bulb swap?

I got the rear license plate LED lights from this place.
Here is the LED page. Email them if they have the turn signal LED for the correct fit.

Personally I think plasti-dip cheapens the look of the grille.
The OEM 3.2 grille is only $145 for ECSTuning and the filler is another $50.
You should be able to sell your stock grille and filler for around the same so the mod is basically free if you do it yourself.

That's just my opinion.
