Hey there! My name is Phil and I'm from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. This is my first thread on my A4.

It's basically stock aside from a few minor upgrades/modifications:
-BlinkTek heatsheild (looks great, perfect fitment, very satisfied with the purchase)
-Cone filter replacement over the stock intake filter
- 17 x 7 Enkei "Fittipaldi" wheels w/ Nankang NS-II 215/45/17 all around (great budget tire with very good tread wear and dry/wet traction, however they are a bit loud on at higher speeds...just turn up the music!)
-De-bagged the rear A4 and 1.8T for a cleaner look
-Blacked out the chrome around the front grill to give it a cleaner look and removed the front "Quattro" emblem on the grill
-M3 lip spoiler
-Dual chrome exhaust tips - I will fabricate myself an exhaust hopefully over winter, 3" downpipe to 2 1/2 inch catback with Magnaflow muffler, keeping the twin chrome tips
-10" Infinity sub (1060W) with 1000W Sony Xplode amp wired to the factory speaker harness to keep the stock deck - cleaner look and I can still use the 6-disc changer
-6000K 35W HID kit is ordered and on its way

Plans for the future after I'm done school:
-Suspension, arms, polyurethane bushing kit - engine and tranny mounts as well
-New wheels, or spacers all around at least
-Some nice slotted rotors with good pads
-BOV/Re-circ valve w/ upgraded diverter valve
-Chipped ECU
-Re-paint to get rid of rust/refresh the car
-New front and rear bumpers ("Euro style") and mild side skirts
-small/medium intercooler with hardpiping

This is just my daily driver, so I want to keep it mildly modded and to just have a clean look...my aim for this car is not to be a tarmac eater, but a fun and reliable, and good looking car!

Now for the pics!

Thanks!

I saw the Group Buy for FCP Groton Control Arm Kits and I couldn't resist...well it's an early Christmas present from my dad!

I ordered kit option #3:
13 Piece Control Arm Kit Contains:
4 Lower Control Arms
4 Upper S4 Upgrade Control Arms
2 Complete Tie Rod Assemblies (Updated Full Metal Version)
2 Updated Sway Bar Links
Hardware Kit

I'm so pumped!!! Can't wait to get these on, the car has been clunking for a little while now but with about 218,000KM on it, I'd say its been doing pretty well :P
