blacking out e codes really sets it off, makes it look like a completely different headlight almost.

Looks nice cleaned up!! Did you paint the trim below the doors? Mine is black...

Might want some bead locks for those wheels before you take a serious corner...

Yea I spent a while trying to match pearl white with a combination of 3 non pearl colors... It looks ok in the day light but once the night shows up and takes on the blue hues, it shows pretty badly.

no beadlocks!!

Looks GREAT!

Your wheel fitment looks very similar to how mine sits.

I do have rubbing issues however. I have trimmed one fender liner so far. Time to go out and do the other in a bit.

Hmm 18x9 and 18x11 is doable...depending on the ET. I know I could fit 11's in my wheels.

The 200 made the trip to New Jersey and back successfully after being out of commission for 10 months! I kind of wish I had entered the show since there wasn't much of a showing for audis of this vintage. Here it is warming up to Cory's 5k

My Waterfest 15 shwag

Yesterday I finally addressed the dash lights. I had the usual broken ground issue so that nearly all dash lights came on and using the turn signals turned my dash into a light show. It was a quick and easy fix - I wish I had done it sooner. I also installed the VDO boost gauge - no more super bright white LED boost gauge!

Here's the jumper I soldered in behind the speedo:

The end product

And here's the headlights all sorted out - city, low beam, high beam. Very nice cutoff line for the low beams!
