Looks good, I see you have gone for the fastest colour Daytona Grey ;)

So tell me, what 'S' button is working, the steering wheel one or the dash mounted one, was it hard to change them over (if you have)

..and welcome, where in the States you from bud?

Only if you have factory fitted sat nav or phone kit.

US cars have the shark fin because they come pre-wired for the XM/Sirius satellite radio and the antenna for that is in the sharkfin.

The S button on the wheel is the one that is working. It made the one on my dash not work.

It took a tech 20 minutes to install and program with a VAG computer at an independent audi shop. He had done one before, someone recomended him.

And I live in Los Angeles

LOL, well you culd always re-wire the speech button to the S button on the dash, seeing as it was on your multi function SW (dependign on what BT/prep you have of course), My Aunt lives in LA, what part you from?

Looking good - tints especially! I think somewhere you can get those side reflectors clear but I dont know about the legal situation in the US.
What's the amber button above the Sat Nav - the one with a short novel on it?
If you want to be really Euro (cooler than cool) you could switch to the metric system on your displays - what do you think?
Also what sort of reaction does the car generally get, is it widely recognised and adored?

Congrats on a fantastic purchase.
