    That looks sooo fantastic, I am going to post it up again!

    IMVHO: Lose the headlight eyebrows (they don't fit properly to look good) and get a really well made mesh to go in front of the IC and it will look AMAZING.

    Brilliant choice of wheels.

    Cheers,

      The brows are already taken off!

        THIS IS WHAT MY EYES MET!

        This bottle is only 0,5L!

        If this doesnt fill out my 18" wheels, NOTHING will!

        They will fill them out nicely. Since the discs are the same as "old" RS6 (and same size as RS4-b7) and the calipers are also the exact same as the RS6/RS4-b7 (except the logo). You will get about 1-2 mm clearance (depending on wheels) between the caliper and the inside of the wheel arch. You can find some pictures of the clearance over at http://www.irry.com/neo/ . Guess you also have 1-2 mm to play with depending on how you manufacture your brackets. I might btw soon have brackets for sale, also seen on that URL.

            Hey Nuvo. =) I'll just a quick answer to this so we don't go to much offtopic in this thread. Acctually it's Bathmobile. =) Since I have had so many water leaks everybody teases me for that damn water... They call my car bathtub and various other water related jokes. =) So that's the story of the name.
            yep they flash amber. The difference can be seen here (LED on left side, original bulb on right):


            But the LED's are a bit to "weak" so at day time in bright light they are almost not visible. Will try to find brigher LED's or just put the original bulb back.

            Raggare is a Swedish phenomena.


            The word can mean so much and is used in vastly different situations. But when I used it on my page there I meant that some people will find that mod a bit "cheap"-looking and not that nice.

              Jayzee: those wheels would look killer on your car. I have one proposal though; paint the IC black! (maybe if anyone can PS it you get a clue).

              SKÅL! Snart må vi dragge
