^^ thanks man.

So what do we think... emblem or no emblem? I really actually like having one in the grill, butnot sure if i like it with my bumper. also i have zero badges (except for wheel centercaps) lol so not sure if i should just keep that theme. Thoughts anyone?

Looks great. That front bumper would look awesome and unique if the Audi like opening by the splitter was filled in and the splitter itself was painted black. I'd say keep the grille emblemless but if you feel like you really need an emblem coloematch it to the car (DG face and black inside the emblem)

^^ elmwood park.... im in saddle brook right now chillen at my desk lol.
theres a large meet at the Lowes in butler NJ wednesdays (mostly Euro) but a few G/Zs from around go and chill everyweek. You should swing by if your not busy.

as for the splitter... debated going flat black with it but I think the bumper needs it though. If two different colors then you clearly see the lines of the bumper with an added lip. IMO the bumper is ugly without the lip haha... so all the same color helps it flow better.

as for the emblem... if I go with it, def DG color match 100%.

They are just vinyl man, nothing special just an easy way to do it. my buddy started klutchdecals.com ...he did them for me. just contact him and tell him Duca referred you and he can make anything you want.

^^ np.

Soooooo i got my new tires in for the front 225/35/20. I get them mounted at a firestone on wednesday afternoon.... i get home to admire my new fitment and try on some spacers when i noticed they fu*king bent my wheel!
BOXER:
Whatever... i call them and expect to go the next day to work it out... i start driving, the bend i guess caused a small leak and the tire went flat, i tossed the spare on and brought the wheel to them.... the tire is completely shot with 7, count em 7 bubbles. and all they said was "ah, i dont want to deal with this, we'll put it through claims..." frustrated beyond comprehension.

^^^ still working out payment with Firestone. but in the mean time go a new tire and fixed wheel.
had it lowered for the summer. here are current pics (taken last weekend)




I also had it dynoed for fun.... as for results - they were surprisingly disappointing. I think I was lied to about the tune.
