The key to a good debadge, a little fishing line saw it back and forth behind the badge and it will cut through the adhesive tape, a little heat helps and then a little heat and just roll the residue off the surface - the newer the car the easier they come off.

Blue with Ivory is the combo my wife likes. I showed her your photos and said, look honey, here's your car. She said, "That's not my car. It has snow on it".

Kidding aside, great combination. Thanks for sharing the photos.

It's uncool how good those 22s look in pic because the glossy black spokes totally disappear in photos. I saw them in real life and to me they don't look half as good as the 21s because the black spokes make it look way too busy and hide the blue calipers.

Can you get your dealer to take a pic of her butt?

What makes you think the dealer is a woman "her" ?

So I have the same wheels - what tires did you end up ordering and from where? Not too many options out there.

I'll have him send me more pictures tomorrow, and specifically request one of the rear end.

SCORPION WINTER - SIZE: 275/40R21 Mavis Discount tire had them in stock. I did it as a square set up. Looks great and drives great.

Wait, I thought you have the 21"s? How did you put 4 275s on those rims? (or did you buy new rim's?)

The width of the front to the rear rims are only 1/2 inch different 9.5 vs 10. They fit no problem. Rear are just a little bit more stretched then the front.

You're wrong regarding the width. They're 10.5 out back.

Maybe, guess the ordering guide has error. In the end they still fit even if it's 10.5.

Well finally, thought I was the only one to get a non M Sport lol. Congrats. How do you feel about the wheel color. I chose that at first then changed it to the same on in bi color. Wasn't so sure about the grey. Would have felt different if they were actually black.

ILM_X5 · 11-24-2018, 02:44 PM

Here's a few from my delivery this morning. Full review to follow in new post.

Thank you. One of the options I was a little nervous about on my build was the aluminum mesh trim. I can say that the configurator pics and others don't due it justice. It's fantastic in person and is largely fingerprint resistant.

Also, the all-weather mats are good. They are by no means as good as the factory set that were in my A6 that I traded in as they are not nearly as slip resistant, but for the price I paid, I'm happy.
