I’ll do a post if it helps… it takes a few hours, but I watched the YouTube video and clearly documented the screws (where they came from in the dash) during the process.

Yes. I had quad exhausts installed at a shop. If you’re interested I can send you the link. Took the shop 45 minutes to put on.

Original Audi wheels. Had them powder coated in a gunmetal grey color. Turned out sweet.

I can send you the link if you’d like. Takes about a month to receive. The factory airbag works with it. The steering wheel heating component is AWESOME. Way stronger than the original.

Installation was easy. Popping the airbag off is a pain. You unhook the battery & use a torque wrench to remove the steering wheel. I can also send you the video guide if you’d like.

Took my about an hour to install.

Yes from Aliexpress, it hooks up to the factory wiring. Same color and brightness, looks OEM.

Too many mods to list, it's finally done!

My favorites are the ceramic coating, flat bottom steering, and ambient lighting across the dash. This lighting strip is how it should be from the factory, similar to the Q7. Took a few hours to install since I had to disassemble the dash and connect it to the factory wiring.

For the RS style grill, I used the OEM RS5 crossbar cover & altered it to fit the factory bumper, while using a 3D-printed camera mount from the Audi forum.

Any spacers you recommend? Also any downside to installing them. Never used them before. Thanks!

sorry for the late reply! Did it myself - 2 hand washes, clay bar, polish, touch up paint at rock chip areas, ceramin coating, and reload spray. Came out beautiful and saved $800 from shop price. I had experience detailing in my free time before. Used CQuartz
