so I had my trim and grille wrapped black last year . It looks great and I’m quite happy with it, although I noticed a couple of chips in the grille wrap (2mm). Wonder if that’s normal.

Just put the Ti wheels on.

Now I have to decide

  1. do I paint my JHM exhaust tips?
  2. do I paint the mirrors greyish?
  3. where can I get OEM sized RS4 and rings for the rear, in black?

I say paint the mirrors and tips to match the trim. But that’s just me since I just did this to my car. I realize I just mentioned in my thread how shitty plastidip is, but in the case of the rear rings, I think you should just plastidip them. I think ECS Tuning will have the rings though if you’d rather go that route, it just costs $75 and you still need to paint it. eBay has it in black but you may be sacrificing quality.

Here’s how mine looks now.

Cool thanks. I was thinking of plastidipping the rings

Anyone have any thoughts on the rear rs4 logo?

There’s some black ones on eBay but they’re too small.

Lol… Do the same with the logo. Sorry for the shitty photo, it rained today and it’s dark now obviously. I can wipe it off and retake tomorrow in light if you want. But I just sprayed it on nice and thick like I did with the rings. That made peeling back the red part easy. The hardest part was getting inside the 3 overlaps on the rings. I used a small pairing knife to peel it back from the corner at which point I could get under it and pull it out. Blade up obviously :wink:

I would be removing the rings then spraying them while they’re ‘floating’ so the gaps are a non-issue

the RS4 logo…how do you get it off the little red part without ruining it? how many coats?

Looks great!

I went with 4 coats. There’s a border between the chrome and the red. Just use your finger nail to peel it back. It tears right where it needs to.
