Perfect....well done man !!!

Also buy 1 more cap and 1 more filter ....what you did to the PCV was for the rear bank and you want the same for the front ...when you look at the engine, you will see a small tube connecting the head to the manifold....remove it...put a cap on the manifold and filter on the head

Thanks bro

Where does the filter go? I am lost again



Shouldn't there be a filter for that yellow cap?

Meko....you car is looking very very SICK....its quickly becoming one of my favs on the forum....

you did the PVC mod very well...

about the Audi....my uncle up in Calif like trying different cars....he had a 325ci convertible and then a Mercedes GL and then an Audi A6 (with sline package) and he tells me 1 thing "all these cars will burn a hole in your pocket"....the TL is a very very low maintenance car and will last you a while....

I would like to own a MB or BMW or Audi but I will buy it brand spanking new and sell it within 3 years before the resale value falls and the car is still under warranty for everything....

Thanks Anil

You guys are the reason for it..

and nothings done yet bro

fog is on the way
+
we will have nice copper orange caliper covers
+
nice and clean rotars
+
Coils next month
+
xxr535 during summer

Then we are done

At the end...last thing I will do is tinting

What is the first thing everyone says to a new member?
Do tint first

I will do it last


oh..about the Germans, yeah I totally agree with you but still... I love Audi and can't keep away from wanting a S4
Best thing is yeah buy a brand new, drive it until 50k and then get rid of it

Because my moms brother was in Benz @ Germany, we knew that the quality of the cars were depending on the country
He was telling us they send the worst ones to USA... how they manage that? I don't know

anyways.. Herb Chambers has online chat on his webside
Biggest dealer owner of New England
My bro asked him if there is any difference in quality between the Benz here and the ones in Europe

He didn't answer.
I asked him some other question about his coffe and car meetings...answered directly

One of the reasons I modded my tails is I was tired of feeling like I was trying to look like a type s. I'm a proud base owner...

Awesome update as always.
about my tails too, thanks man.

I think we'll let you beat Austin to install so you can document and make it easier on me to install for him. He won't do that on his own, I guarantee it.

What Acura emblem? I just wrapped the front side..well, took it off

It's soooo hard do wrap all of it, it's impossible to do perfect job on it. Wrap is too thick
Best thing is plastidip haha

But just checked my key #2 and it looks clean, will use this one

and black plastidip the old one





meh..doesn't look perfect

anyways
did some detail on the car
doors interior windows wash

no fogs yet









Anil, we have to do this to our AT tranny
