Those subzeroes look great on your car, and I love that custom exhaust!

Anyone out there with dark silver body, but light silver top and side mirrors? I noticed that they stopped offering my combo some time after I got my baby in 2006. Wonder why they narrowed it down to just body color, black, or white? Cost?

I love my color combo!! Dark silver is soooo slick. I chose it originally because I thought the car naturally had so much cute already, I didn't need to cutify it further with a bright color. This way, it appeals to men and women equally---IF I could ever part with it.

Atomic, that SUCKS! Nice ride. I had my Audi broken into a year ago, and the thieves took the most ridiculous stuff. A towel, my cell phone, some work papers, and some other junk. Left my wallet and knife untouched. Weird. Sorry about your luck. People are dumb.

Randy, are we trying to build the same car? Most of what is installed body wise on yours, is also already on mine, or in the loft waiting to go on.
I love the look, and the pic!

I've got a '02 R53 with 186k mi. Original clutch

Hey Gray-lovers
I'm in the process of replacing my PS pump and the metal water lines directly above the pump sprung a leak when I whacked it with the pump while replacing the pump. The coolant lines are pretty corroded so I'm glad it happened while I had the pump out.
Any body else have this problem. The coolant lines cost about 100 bucks

Samtrak what front bumper is that? Mine got crunched in a fender bender this past winter. Looking to replace it, love the way yours looks.

Hi friends, here's my MCS JCW












A few exterior mods to come; aero kit + white wheels (Tecnomagnesio Light 17") and thinking about what to do with bonnet stripes.

Suggestions welcome.

Best wishes from Spain!

Fernando
