If budget allows, try and pick up a set of light weight wheels as they will benefit ride, handling and accelleration. Doesnt the car come with chrome exhaust tips ?

For window tinting try one of our supporters Krown Lakeshore. Here is a link and pictures of tinting I got on my car.

Wussup,

I just picked up my 2010 A4 wit Premium Pkg a few weeks back in Meteor Grey and was looking for the exact same things you are. I ended up tinting my car and even getting my headlamps and taillights smoked using Lamin- X film (a better film than 3M) by Pure Auto - PureAuto - Mississauga and Toronto tint, stone guard and detail automotive services. Talk to Mark and tell him Frank sent ya from the Audi Forum. He'll hook you up nicely. He is the one who tints all of Queensway Audis cars so you can even talk to those guys of the quality of his work. He has a gallery page on the website. After the film cures on my whip he wants to take pics of it and put it up on the site. Can't wait to post the pics on this site!!!

As for tips, I went and purchased the OEM slide on tips from Audi. It was a breeze to put on.

Lastly SHOES!!! I'm still looking for a good deal on rims for my whip. I'm sort of set on dropping the R8 5 star replicas on them - OEM RIMS FACTORY WHEELS STOCK RIM CHROME REPLICA WHEEL USED RIMS Wheels OEM RIMS FACTORY WHEELS STOCK RIM CHROME REPLICA WHEEL USED RIMS Rims I know VIP Status makes the rim - it's a Korean company. If it's performance your after and you got the money to spend, then I would find a rim that is light weight and forged aluminum. A few other inexpensive rim companies to look out for are SPYN , VMR, and Vertini.

Hope that helps!

For Rims i would check out eurotechrims on ebay, thats where i got my replicas from and the service was great, quick ship and good price. And they did amazing things for my Avant!

for tires i just slapped the Kumho Ecsta AST on, they grip amazing in wet and dry, i tried drifting in both and it wouldnt let me, they just stick on the road!

How much did it cost you to get the rims through them? I was also looking at that ebay posting but wasn't sure if there would be any brokerage fees...did you have to pay any duties or brokerage fees? PM me if you like...thanks!

Well to be honest i paid a little more for the rims then i originally wanted too but it was worth it.

Rims cost me $599 USD + $160 USD Shipping to Canada, I then had to pay an Additional $132 CAD for brokerage etc. next time i would have just gotten them shipped to a merchant close to border and picked it up myself. thats what i did with my Kumho's, saved about $400 on the kumhos.

Guys, you know there's a local outfit in T.O. that sells quality Replicas and tires at very competitive prices ? Check out SimplyTire - Allan is a good guy and many people I know have only great things to say about him. BTW, the price he charges for the 17" R8 reps is approx. $600. CDN !
