As you know, I have custom carbon fiber trim by oCarbon installed on my Audi A4, so when I went to trade it in, I put the factory (OEM) trim back in so I could keep my carbon fiber trim for my S4. I took pictures of the whole process so I could create a trim [...]

Well, the time has come to move on from my beloved Audi A4. She was a great car and I’m really going to miss it – I learned a ton about modding, and really dialed in the car to where I wanted it. I had a ton of fun in the car too, from track [...]

I recently was in touch with the guys at SpoonFedTuning to try out a new carbon fiber lip they’re producing based of the Seat Cupra R lip – and wow am I excited with the outcome. I had previously ran the OEM version of the lip, but I had two issues with it – it [...]

As a follow-up to one of my more popular posts, how to fit S6 LEDs onto a B7 S-Line or S4 bumper, I often get asked how I made the grilles. I’ve even offered to make them for a few people. The truth is, they’re not that hard to make – they just take a [...]

The brake lights on my B7 (2005.5-2008) Audi A4 went out several weeks ago – I delayed and delayed replacing them, figuring it was a difficult process. I’m happy to say it is simple as pie, takes only about 5 minutes, and all you need is a flat head screwdriver! This is a super easy [...]

My friends over at oCarbon have done it again – my B Pillars are now wrapped in the same 5HS carbon fiber that my interior & front filler plate are done in, and they came out awesome. I’m really stoked with how these came out – while I didn’t think it’d be a very noticeable part [...]

My new wheels needed some new valve stem caps – somewhere along the way I had lost my old set, and my tire installer used some really ugly gold valve stems that stuck out like a sore thumb against my gloss black wheels. The dealer charges a good $30 for Audi valve caps, so I [...]

I loved my last set of BBS CH wheels so much I got another set – this time in black. I couldn’t be happier with the result – the same classic & timeless style of the BBS CH, but the black finish makes the car look much more aggressive. While I really enjoyed my silver [...]

Hi my name is Nick and I’m addicted to Carbon Fiber I loved my carbon fiber interior so much that I asked oCarbon to make a filler plate for me as well. They used the same 5HS weave from my interior to create a matching filler plate for my exterior, giving my car a unique [...]

The stock Audi A4 or S4 E-Brake handle doesn’t have perforated leather, but if you have S-Line, UltraSport Package or the S4 package your steering wheel and shifter probably do – adding the RS4 E-Brake Cover is a nice way to make everything match – it’s all in the details.
