I tried really hard, but I couldn't convince myself to get the full brake kit. Instead I just went with the j-hooks, some good pads, and ss lines on all four corners. Those nickel calipers look hot!

I really think your issue with paint coverage came from the fact that your calipers were already painted. I’ve watched 10s of videos of this exact paint system and all of the ones without pre painted calipers were basically covered after 2 coats. I said that to say, yours looks just as good as the rest I’ve seen, you did a great job and you are another reason I’m planning on getting this kit.
@midlifemods19 күн бұрын
I think you’re absolutely right. The factory paint was not a great source for adhesion. But overall, they turned out pretty good. But can you believe I just took them off for a big brake kit? After all that work 😂

Thanks! I’ve shared my full mod list on Audi World forum if you’re interested. www.audiworld.com/forums/s4-b9-platform-discussion-214/my-s4-build-3071456/ I think the sway bar kit and lower springs completely transformed the car. When you combine those mods with the all wheel drive Quattro system, you can keep up with almost any car and average driver on your typical roads.
