    I go to visit a friend in Zwolle. I have sent many parts to him for shipment. He prepares them for me.

    There are many legal ways.....the only way I wish to it.

              Thanks, I don't know what type of Audi it is, but it had serious power! The owner was scaring kids when he revved the engine! Hahahaha (Flames and loud bangs!)

                  thank you.

                  A quick update........ I picked up the lower door trim from the paint shop yesterday morning.

                  On holiday ATM, will post some pics next week when I get home.

                        As promised, albeit late, my painted spoiler and lower door trim found my way a few weeks ago. I've just finally gotten around to attaching the trim this weekend. It's raining here.....





                        I attached the clips to the little tabs sticking off the bottom of the doors and then the trim just slides on from the end. There is a small black clip that attaches to one end of the trim that caps the opened end of the trim off. It's looking more RS2-ish now. I'll stick on the trim for the wing and rear quarter later.



                        A couple of pictures of the roof spoiler. I do like it, but not real sure that I will be using it in the end.

                          yum. I bet there are a lot of RS2 owners looking very jealously at those immaculate trims.
                          I would go with the spoiler Tom, the **** end looks a bit naked without it. my personal preference of course

                            As you can probably figure I've got bits for this project all over. I will run across something and think "I could put this on now". This is one of those parts. I've had them since the body was painted and had forgotten about them. These parts play a dual role. One, to cap of the end and second, to brace the end of the skirt.

                            The covers are attached just inside the rear wheel arch where the skirt ends via a small metal "bow" as Audi calls it. Pic below. I tried mounting this part first and then attaching the plastic part because I thought that I wouldn't be able to access the screw in the wheel well with the cover in place. I was wrong. After fumbling around with trying to push the pin into the plastic rivet with the cover on the car I took it all off, assembled it, then mounted it. The cover is in the way just a little, but you can still get to the body screw behind it.



                            The painted cover. There is a groove in the end of the skirt that fits the cover. The tab with the hole in it at the top of the cover slides in just behind the skirt and is secured by a plastic rivet.





                            Done.

                              I do like being naked though.

                                Lovely those details! Really starting to get that RS2 look now
                                Also mounted 2 new lower door trims today on mine, looks so much better then fully corroded ones.
