What will ever inspire you to drive the TL? Moving furniture, hanging out in poor neighborhoods, can't think of many other reasons.

If there's a foot if snow on the ground or some reduce loud amount would be the only reason I would drive the TL.

I'm thinking we get your parents to pony up for some photography classes. Damn... it's like a monkey took those photos. The interior shot was the best one...

From what I can see it looks sweet. Enjoy

Congratulations on your S5, you have a stunning color combination and a manual transmission to boot. We had a Phantom black cab that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Stay safe.

[QUOTE=juniorbean;14454126]Fair enough. I just love S5's... so any excuse to post more pics is good with me :
As the parts start flowing in I will get some more pictures up. I already ordered ecodes and B8.5 tails but Last night I ordered an APR carbonio intake, tuner dome LED kit, H&R swaybars, H&R DRA spacers 20mm in back 25 up front, Eurocode Alu-Kruez stabilizer and then I'm still deciding on what brakes I want. But those are just a few things to get this project moving along.

H&R DRA trak spacers are on order. 25mm in back 20 mm in front as well as H&R sways front and back, Eurocode Alu-Kruez stabilizer, Alcon 380mm BBK up front and thinking about a 365mm BBK in back all this should be done within 2 months. Then comes APR Stage III, APR Intake, Facelift S5 pedals, RS5 center console with silver buttons, Carbon Fiber interior trim, piano black gage cluster trim, OEM RS5 grille, Carbon or piano black rear diffuser, Wheels.. New wheels should be here in a few months. Still dont know if i want to keep the order i have on the HRE's or go a different route.

Looks great man!

And I don't have problem of being spoiled! I'm Korean!

Just drive safe and enjoy.

Be thankful!

And get the tow hook front license plate holder if you really have to put it on.

Here are the new wheels!
Hartmann RS4 reps 20x9.5 up front, 20x10 in back.
I figured i would not go with the HRE's because i would rather be able to buy 6-7 sets of wheels opposed to 1 set.
