Thread: 08 GP (Pretty in White)

Kept my egr because there was plenty of clearance






And there it is, my first mod since I got home last night, woke up today and took us a good 7 hours and we figured out some tricks, next is some lighting upgrade and good wash

Looks great, can't wait to do header and DP install. Just need something....oh right $$$$

Nice will you be doing a video since headers were added? What lighting stuff you doing?

yeah i will have to get video sometime, and headlight stuff, led's have mostly been taking car of except, floorboards and rear skylines

Did my VHT tint today, it looks better than i thought it would, so here is my take on vht, i put one coat on a headlight, sanded, tinted, sanded, tinted, clear coat. on the other headlight i sanded, tinted, tinted. and the one where i didnt use clear coat is much more shiney that the one i clear coated, so idk if this is how it works but i just left it. because it looks very good. the other one is a bit cloudy. the one in the next picture is the one i clear coated.



It has pretty good light output though, i am waiting for the HID's to get here




some photos of the fog, they were much easyier


not tinted yet

SPO Grilles!


Oh and just for reference i haven't washed it yet, after my 8 hour drive

looking good.

the headlight you put clear on, well it needs to be wet sanded with like 2000 grit and then compounded to get the scratches out of it, but afterwards it will shine like mad. if you have a porter cable buffer they work real good, makes short work vs doing it by hand.

yeah i got the wetsand down for the most part, i think the buffer will be coming out soon. thanks though

Tinted and Debadged today



going to buff it out a bit more, still able to see badge

Looking good, when I de badged my ride I wet sanded and then buffed it out.

My favorite photo by far, just got done with a wax

My latest project




The first one didn't turn out so well, gonna touch it up, working on second one now

Should do a retro while you have them apart

^^^ what he said.

Were those OEM headlights, or aftermarkets?

Omg oem, they were a b**** to get apart, and yes I thought about some retros, I was gonna play with some LEDs when they got here too

Retros would have been have real nice, but they still look great either way

got my manifold all dun up today

I'm sure it was a PITA. What did you do to split them? Time and temp of oven? I'm going to be retroing the tinted OEM ones, and not looking forward to it.

I like the whole black and white scheme going on. I'm gonna paint my UIM someday whenever it comes up on the list of **** to do. *le sigh*

i had them at 240* in for like 7-8 minutes at a time, i just had a flat head and just slowly pryed them off
One took like 5 or 6 different time to actually get apart the other went quick once i knew what to do

I am an Audi Now
