Really looking forward to seeing what you do with the RS4, will make such a nice change to see a completely non standard RS4.

Well its not all been plain sailing lol
On a plus side i have just ordered a non res milly.

I have got some 20 x 10 alloys but am struggling to get them on right with the right tyres.
I ve also had to buy h+r porsche hub adapters and ive also got genuine porsche black alloy nuts,not cheap :(

I have ordered 4 new tyres today so these better clear the front wing on lock.

I will update as soon as i sort it and be ready for your opinions :shock: :lol:

The moddings not started yet lol.
well it has but none of you have seen it yet,thats when i get asked to leave :lol:

As for the rear badge,i'm still undecided,but if i source a us spec rear boot lid then i certainly will,as i will have to have it painted.

Do you think it would be better with or without ?
