Both the plates have the lightest tint film available over them because I didnt want them as bright as they were really. Sticking with shiny tips though,I only ever have black tailpipes if they are down turns. Trying out a new job next week which is virtually on my doorstep so looking forward to spending some time with the car and if im lucky I might even start taking the bumper of the parts car to get the headlights off ready to swap out

Any rubbing from the wheels?

Looks like everything's been done properly. Talking of things done properly, how are the seats coming along? :roll:

oem :bigblink:

seats are currently under way with an entirely new hide and a complete redo. Also decided against the stitched logos which were always a concern. If I cant get both the logos embossed to match the rears then I'm going to go for just the Recaro emblem embossed and if it annoys me enough that the RS6 logo is missing from the front then I'll go ahead with redoing it all over time. Understandably I'm going to have a chill after taking the hit on the paint job. Going to concentrate on just getting the IC's and DP's fitted now and another remap then worry about where I'm sitting

IMO, embossed would be a lot better looking. Take it the same people are re-doing them?
