Default GHLs are here!

My GHLs with Quad 3" Bullseye Tips and X-pipe were waiting for me when I came home today. Workmanship is impeccable. Now that I have them I can say "it was worth the wait". You all know what I'll be doing this weekend.

My charming and supportive wife has suggested that the 1st video clip with sound would be me swearing as I'm doing the installation. It's nice when your significant other bolsters your confidence don't you think?

Ohh thats easy to cure..."Hey hunny, can you come here and hold this for me? Then go in and get teh camera, come back out and take a pic of her. Best if you take a pic while she still has rollers in her hair and a robe on.


Congrats! You going to drop the rear sway bar?

re: Sway bar drop.
Absolutely and remove the heat shield, etc. as it's an A4. I have a lift so I'm optimistic. Thanks for asking.

Poptops-Your wife has an awesome sense of humor.
I've got the ZO6 Ti's and they don't do it for me anymore. I'm going to have to break down and get the GHL's.
