Awesome. Cool to see the C5 "wagon wheels" on an early C4. Pulls it off really nicely! Looking really good, from the wheels to the paint to the gauges.

The car looks great. I've always said it..............those wheels look wayyyy better on a C4 than they ever did on a C5

I'm not normally a fan of the wagons but they look great on your car.

Thanks guys, i've to say wagons looks good on early C4, i have a good deal (they are 18" all four corner,4 rear C5 rims),when i bought these i was't totally sure how she was looking...i was thinking to paint these black gloss,but when i mounted the wheels i was surprised how fine they match the paint.Car is running fresh Bilstein Z51 too

Beautiful Job...and I love to see someone just put effort into the C4..you have done an outstanding interior. I really like the steering wheel, one thing I was never crazy about in the early C4s. this car is a real keeper..and a head turner. good luck with her..and post many more photos, especially of that awesome interior job, somehow you have made the perception of C4s having old tired interiors, seem cool and relevant, the seats and trim, and gauge package you installed is just kick ***. Great C4..!! Congrats..and the wheel choice with that body color..outstanding!

I also really like the wagon wheels on your C4. I'm surprised how good they look. I think they would look good gloss black as well but the silver really blends in nice.

The seats came out gorgeous as well. They look very "upscale".

You have a "photographer's eye." Great shots of your beautiful ride.
