My B6 Supercharged Stage 1+ RS4 build thread...

Funny you should say that, shes over there in January

[iconic78]

That's some very good and neat work being done there!!

Why carbon boot though? Would it not have been better to try and get the front wings and bonnet in carbon to make the front lighter?

Exactly what Bam Bam said. The bonnet is also carbon and the roof is black so made sense, kinda have a flow to it all. One thing that is bugging me is the Titanium mirrors; should i leave as is or have them repainted to match in black to match the rest?? The wheels are also in Titanium/Graphite.

Probably more to do with tying in the roof and bonnet being black/carbon. Also, both of these items require strengthening because I'll be doing your mum on this car when it's finished. We're having a dirty weekend away in the middle east.

Hmm

Should definitely be black, or even Carbon if you can get them dipped somewhere? Ilya (Pule333) dipped his, but that was here in the UK so not sure if you can find someone to do it over there? Anyway, take a look at the results here viewtopic.php?f=121&t=120637&start=75

Please please don't hydro dip them, real carbon or titanium/graphite

Why not?

Why not?

I don't like it at all, my opinion is it looks a little cheap, and doesn't have the look of real carbon.
Audi fitted the car with real carbon so it should try to be matched up.

I will be getting all my bits done with real carbon in the closest weave possible.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean he shouldn't do it! They look fine to me, but Iconic can make his own mind up

[Jules]

[MrHilario]

I agree, each to their own, but you are begging him not to do it? lol. I was only trying to help

DO NOT LIKE. It looks very digital and has no depth.
