Imola RS 5 Detailed

Post by HYFR » Mon Mar 18, 2013 5:33 pm

Thank you Andre for your very kind donation.

Sadly after a recent hooning to the EVO Triangle its not quite so clean anymore, but these things are designed to be used.

Put your sunglasses on and enjoy the read

I would whole heartedly recommend Drayke Fields. The main man is Lanré, and he's a really nice guy. I left my car with then direct from buying it from Audi. Totally trustworthy and a true professional.

That looks brilliant, respect to the detailer.
Good luck with your new motor.

I know I've been very vocal about the rotors on the '4' but I actually think they suit the '5' much better than the v spokes will.

There were a number of FL course car RS5s at a track day I did last year at LeMans that had the v spokes and they looked quite meh on them and I was disappointed. It could be that they were very dirty (despite having ceramics) that put me off
