New Paint

My wife loves her RL (I have a CL). It's a '97, so I guess she was getting tired of it. Thing is, it's in great shape. Like new in all respects, but the Eucalyptus Green didn't do it justice. When she was away for a few weeks, I got it repainted. I picked an Audi gold color I had seen once. we both love it. When it was painted, they removed the doors, hood, bumpers,and trunk lid. There is no evidence it was ever green. I saved a lot by not having to buy a new car!

It's stock. They took the fenders off, too, so the body parts are all the new color. The interior is tan, so it looks good with the new color.

It was $4000. But I think it was worth it because it is such a great car. (and I won't have to buy a new one for a long time)
