Nice rolling shot!
I like the sound of the bespoke springs, I didn't know they offered that service. I think I'd have to lose the rear spacers if I went lower at the rear. Can't decide whether I should put the 20mm springs in the fron then space them out to match the rear or leave it low... I do like it low though!

I'm keen to see how the trim turns out. I'm doing the carbon conversion on mine as you know but that leaves the window trims and roof rails in titanium still.

That's a good pic!
When's someone gonna put some decent concave wheels on a C7 though, imo oem are poop.

I like it low too, hence the bespoke springs. Im hoping its worth it. I think the spacers will be ok, I have 15mm on the rear and there is plenty of arch gap to go lower.

I will get some picture up when i have them fitted along with the trims done in gloss black. I do like the titanium but want that all black look.

The Rotiforms that I am putting on do have a decent concave on them. They are like the image i have attached but in a matte black just to add some contrast.

Not really seen much on here with aftermarket alloys. I like 65% of the pics posted Mike.

The RS6 goes into the bodyshop first thing tomorrow to have all titanium trims pained in black. I am in two minds whether I go for gloss black like the standard grill or I go matte black to add some variation. Any thoughts?

I will post pictures as soon as I collect the car.

That was the plan but a second opinion always helps. Have been told my springs wont be here until Mid Jan :thumbsdown: im inpatient when it comes to waiting for parts!

I am wondering if i should get the front doors stripped down while at the bodyshop so I can get the front windows tinted. Just hate having doors stripped as they never seem to sound quite the same when you close them.

How long will it take to get the car back with the new look? I've got some bits waiting to be deliveted / fitted to mine and I can't wait but no spare time at the moment.

That's a long wait for the springs, but it'll soon be Christmas then mid January before you know it.

I am hoping tuesday evening wednesday latest.

Id also like to have the rear and front lights tinted but unsure whats the best way to do this? dont want them painted. I did see that the red RS6 on this forum had the roof bars wrapped in black. do you know if this looks any good? not something i would do but intrigued as to how well that turns out.

What bits to you have to go on? Havent seen any IG posts of your car for a long time. I have gone a bit crazy with car posts lately!!
