I went with Baer Eradispeed rotors. They look great and price was good too. My car is a weekend cruiser and I just wanted the look.

I really want some 3:42 gears, a double din stereo from double d, and some new leather for the interior. May take a few years.

My first mods! Have a D Sport steering wheel and re-wrapped A4 shift **** on way from DSV, GS stripes from MMMW, and "Corvette" lettering for back bumper from Corvette Mods on way now. (going to see how they look, if I don't like I will just remove, and if I do like look but think it will look better painted I may just paint them.) Likely will get a set of mats from Lloyds and that'll probably wrap up this year. Longhot for this season, probably next: new seat skins and foam.

Would love to, but Santa won't be that good to me this year, so they'll wait till next: DD stereo and bezel - probably a road trip up to DD Mods sometime next year, and new wheels and tires, but I have pretty good tread still on tires, so that just has to wait..
