Cant remember the name but it was from halfords.Think its called just Brake caliper paint but is fine for engines aswel takes abit of time. the finish is good but make sure theres no dust around as it drys super quick. if i couldve been bothered and didnt have to drive the car to work everyday i think i wouldve taken the rocker cover off and sprayed it for a better finish but im happy with how it is nice and glossy.
got some pics of the sides at work today needs a good clean though, one of the down falls of working in a forest
dressing kit and silicone hoses bargain for £25 posted
Got the engine bay finished now will get more pic tomorrow with some better light

how does your bonnet shut does it not catch the induction kit pipe ?
18" 8.5j rs6 wheels with 225/40/18 can anyone give me any advice on whether these will rub???????? or if anyone has had wheels close to this size thanks
They should be fine, as the Audi's have the same offset. Tyre size is fine as well. Will probably need some adapters though unless they're reps
Are they 5x112 or 100?
you can get 15mm adapters, not that wide, and tbh will look better when the car is lowered, a bit of stance
yeah they are 5x100 but in my budget for wheels i cant really justify the spacers atm also most people on here have only opted for 10mm spacers on the front.
You won't need adapters then, get em if they're the right price.
Then decide on spacers after the wheels are on

new wheels
brought these the other day in silver and got to work
They're RS6 Reps (not that heavy) 18/40/225 8.5j. Got four brand new tyres. Probally goin to get some 5mm spacers as i tried just one of the rims on the car earlier and the inside edge is pretty close to the shock strut. looks like they will give the car a good bit of stance.
