But, still, if that's going to lag the system that much (it took like 10 seconds to go back), should they do something about that to fix it? It seems ridiculous. My gf was like wtf?? lol
I haven't had that issue with my RNS-E ... Did you search near your location? Otherwise maybe you did pull every HD across the country.

Yesterday, my gf and I were looking at some rims for her Audi.

VMR seems to be a very popular over at the Audizine. Is this a good rim manufacturer? Expensive?

Which website should I look to find a great deal on them?

They are good and well made. They are cast, not forged, and for what they look like, are competitive.

However, you can only buy them from VMR unless you get a used set from someone (obviously).

Look for one of VMR's threads on Audizine about a sale and contact one of the d00ds that posted in it. That's how I got my V710s.

Someone on the Audi boards made the grille that I've been wanting for my Avant....

Skip down to post #9.

I wish there was a company that made that kit. I've been wanting a grille that looks like that since we got our Avant.

Tags are starting to annoy me because I don't know how they are added to threads. Don't know how half of these crap tags get added and we can't even modify them.

The rings screw it up.

I would just take them off. But for some reason the way he did it makes the grille look enormous.

And I would be pissed if my crashbar looked like that as an original owner. That car got smashed and had the bumper replaced.

Don't know if you read through the thread, but the grille was made from an OEM S6 grille

Good point, the Euro plate up front would like nice, but at the point may as well just swap the standard US front filler plate with the euro filler plate.

I guess a part of me likes it because it's different.

I never did this because my long term goal was to purchase the RS4 grille anyway.

Thanks dude!

Are the tags only modifiable by mods? There are so many threads that need to have their tags fixed.

Lookin' good dude! Any plans on swapping out those bulbs for the fogs for something more white. I think yellow would a nice accent.

I put Hoen Xenonmatch on my gf's B8 Avant and it looks pretty good. It was pretty cheap I think.

Those are actually the Luminics bright white fogs...I guess they aren't very white compare to my 5k HID's.

I had Hoen endurance fogs (yellow), but one of them shorted out after half a year, so I decided to go with Luminics this time.
