Really Great To Be Back Here! Pics Inside.
Hello Again,
Very happy to be back in a magnificent C4. Really missed my 86! Bought this 1996 A4 Coupe in the low production Dark Purple Metallic here in February from a fellow member. Car was shipped to Iowa for it's first rounds of mods at Mike's Corvette and Auto in Des Moines. Mike lowered the car, installed four new wheel hubs, new starter, replaced all fluids, leveled the Corsa Exhaust and fixed some minor fluid leaks. Good friend and Forum Member Brett *** (SPD KLS), brought the car to Omaha where he painted the calipers and rotor hats, tinted the windows and mounted my Fikse FM5's 17x11 and 17x9.5 with Race Satin Centers and Polished Lips. Tires are Nitto NT05 in 315/35/17 and 275/40/17. I first saw the car in Omaha on Saturday… needless to say I was really stoked. I had a vision for this car and with the help of some great people, I think I succeeded. Car is gorgeous… beautiful color, great stance and aesthetic, drives great and pulls hard. I'm sorry, but a properly executed modded C4 looks better than 99 percents of all other cars on the road.
Snapped a couple Droid pics after a detail in Brett's dream garage. So fun.
Stay Frosty!

Looks pretty sweet! I wish Iowa would allow side window tint that dark. And I also am liking those wheels. Overall it's a great look. I don't suppose you plan on attending the corvette rally at the Black Hills this year? That car would really stand out
