        Yup. Thanks Maiks. Saved the photo of the cut-away of the rear box. (Normally completely packed with fiberglas.)

          Thanks!
          This job is a real pain in the a.. Crap flew everywhere, several times I was thinking why the hell I do it.. But today I was thinking that a little more and there is no rust at all on the bottom...
          I hope to put all pieces back tomorrow and make some better pictures, I need more light then U have better review.

            No problem. Normally fiberglas cant fly out. The rear box end was cut bigger and the pipes were welded bigger, so all the stuff can fly out.

              Good news, car is done!!
              Bad news: powdercoaters did not follow the deadlines.
              Worse news: they painted with wrong color I wanted dark dark green, almost black!!
              But when the stuff finally was ready then
              I do not have any more time to repaint, so I have to put it all back together as it is!!
              PLEASE NO COMMENTS ABOUT THE COLOR!!!
              But the rest of it was normal, one bushing what I bought from albert wasnt in correct size, 3mm bigger but it is ok now..
              Some pictures!!! More is coming on monday..

                It's under the car, so it's not like calipers were done in wrong colour? Looks great under there otherwise

                Looking forward to hearing your opinion on poly bushes

                  Fingers crossed that I will not never ever turn the car upside down in fast corners, otherwise everybody can see

                  I will let U know about the bushes.. But it happens probably in spring

                    Looks great, as mentioned, just as well it's not the callipers.

                    Colour is annoying in one's mind even though no one else can see it, but it's mild compared to the initial red colour.

                    It's way better than it was / than a lot of shiny cars that are pretty rusty underneath belonging to some members.

                    Interested to see how you feel about the poly bushes. Albert is a great asset for S cars owners, but oem bushes for myself, I'm old, but still keen to see what you think, as my car is the same even down to the body colour, so the photos are like it's my car being done. :roll eyes:

                      Yesterday I was thinking about those bushings. I am quite sure that I dont feel any difference, but so far I have driven about 15 metres, so I dont know yet. But I am 100% sure that the difference is not like before was so bad and now is so good. But will see. At first I must let someone see if the rear wheels are straight!

                      The biggest joy is that I can fill gas tank and dont need to worry about the leaks

                        Maybe it's too early, but did new bushes reduce interior noise at all? Mine is pretty crashy and quite noisy inside.

                          Sorry Hunker, which bushes are fitted to your 'grey' car ?

                          Thanks.

                            I hope mine are not, otherwise I have to replace those and put oem back!

                              Mine is on OEM 22 year old bushes and I'm planning to refurbish all suspension with shocks over summer in effort to make it more quieter.

                                I forgot to add pictures.. So here they are..

                                Alberts Aluminium Subframe Bushings rear Audi C4 (S4/S6/UrS4/UrS6) and V8 (D11). But the hole is bigger than the bolt, but maybe it should be. I don't remember how the oem was.





                                Only bushes are not new. Both sides were in very good condition.







                                Thank god I cleaned handbrake mechanism. When all things were together, then I noticed that I must release the nut.. No key didn't reach and then I thought that I must remove the cardan but luckily fingers reached and the nut turned
