Yup, and door stops...
The wrap is only a temporary outer coating

Yes it has a white engine bay.
No, that's no the latest mod (or even a mod at all - that element remains unchanged from when it left the factory).

Thanks Jules. Was debating the colour of the rings with my wife yesterday. She loves them, but I planned to peel back to the titanium underneath...

Serious the car looks so good and something Ive wanted to do for a while since doing my b5 widebody.

I think titanium will look more classy, the stuff my misses likes I always do the opposite :lol:

Thanks again. Guess I'd better get production of the wide arch kit finished off! :D

Ha! Yeah, that's my usual approach too - especially when it comes to whether or not to buy car-related stuff ;)

The rings were only really done to showcase the 'flip' of the dip, as their shape means you can easily see the full colour range in a small area...

I was looking at your rings at ADI (cue the jokes!) and wondered how they managed to wrap them so well.

Thought I felt violated! :)

Not an Audi, but does demonstrate how easy the 'liquid wrap' products make it...


Surprised @shoppinit hasn't been all over this - used to have a real thing for Plasti Dip

He's a more traditional colour Plasti-dipper.
