Looks great! What did you use to adhere the rings to the wrap? Or do they just clip into place?

Thanks ... I made a small cut for their original tabs and they snapped right back in nice and snug. For a little added security I used a drop of superglue on each tab.

your avant looks freakin fantastic with those wheels. love the painted calipers as well. what did you use for the red quattro logo?

can you tell a difference with the dynamat?

also, why did you have to replace your rotors already?

Thanks, the red logo is from a UK seller on eBay.
Just search for Audi caliper decal.

I just installed the Dynamat this morning so I don't have a lot of seat time with it. I'll report back in a few weeks with some info.

The rotors had a small lip but did have some life left in them.
The pads were at 6mm so the change was premature but wanted to do paint/pads/rotors all at once.
