Much like the other one we did early this year.....

This car belongs to another customer that has always brought his cars to the next level, this is a 2002 Audi S4 Avant that was converted to an RS4 using all factory parts coming from Germany. Not sure if he has changed his mod list yet but I believe by the time this is done it will be 600-700 crank hp!

After the body panels were installed it went in for paint....below is what we needed to do

We wrapped:

1. Side skirts
2. Top of rear bumper
3. Full Front bumper
4. Gas Cap
5. Door Handles

The total time this took was 50 hours with the 3 of us, Dan, Tom, and I. Long days and nights to prep this one for H20.

Before shots of the interior (most of the interior will get upgraded, customer was concerned mostly of the carpets and the plastics.



Tidying up the interior - we collected loose items and put them in a box


Removal of rear bench




Front Seats were removed ....Lots of dirt and grime under them



After a vac we proceeded to clean up the upholstery with Sonax Upholstery Cleaner


Dirt picked up from the microfiber


After shot of the carpets under the front seats

Paint Measured - Trim masked


Car needed to be finished down - we went with M105, SIP, PO85RD - this was a pretty hard color to show paint defects...

Love your work.

Does the clear film look ok in real life as it does in the photos?

How does it handle stone chips?

Thanks Andrew

Awesome car!

detailersdomain

the clear film protects against the rocks, paint transfer in the parking lots etc...
it looks pretty good, not great on white due to yellowing and more obvious on darker colors.

thanks guys
