    Mark,

    I love the car and wheels but I'm not a fan of those mud flaps. Good to see you back I have been working a crap load of hours as well so I feel your pain..

    Any plans of some pictures with you in a high leg bikini bent over at the waist leaning on the hood of that Audi? Kinda like the Countach poster I had on my bedroom wall in '84?

    I know and its not my choice either but the wheels are far so out of wells, with the deep offset that they are kicking up a lot of road debris. I may remove them down the road since they will scrape when its lowered but I'm not sacrificing my paint right now. There are side options with the S5 but they don't really do anything but for the far rear side, before the rear wheels.

    I'll knock one out at Polkfest, in my labcoat and all. Make that...only in a labcoat.

    If you want my personal signature on it, I'll handle it.

    DABOYZ - I apologize ephatically for not getting back to you sooner but some things didn't happen offline concerning the speaker deal we had, that I fully expected to happen. That's completely my fault and I'll make sure it gets resolved. Again, sorry about the delay but have no doubt that I will make it good and ensure you are more than pleased.

    Others - Thanks for the kind words. I had to get away for awhile and no it wasn't behind bars this time around. Work has been super busy and I've been working 20-40 hours OT every week if at all possible. I'll get back into the swing and start moving products around again in a more usual, doro-like fashion of the old days. Audio burned me out so I had to remove myself from the equation and get lost into work, of which actually pays me something other than self-gratification.

    No worries, we'll be back up and running, demo's flying here, there and everywhere in no time. Thanks for being patient as always.

    I did do a couple personal things while I was away and tinkering at home by cutting off all ties with the outside world....installed Eibach F&R sway bars, Eurocode silicon intercooler hoses w/ SS tbolt clamps, Eurocode intake hose w/ upgraded 3" turbo inlet, Eurocode drivetrain stabilizer(Alu-Kreuz), RS5 steering wheel, SLine door sills, CF plate delete, CF engine cover, tow hook license plate mount and last but not least HRE 3 Piece 295/25R21 wheels in matte black. I'm lowering it in a couple weeks on a possible Koni/Eibach combination and preparing the install of S5 brakes and rotors, plus S5 cabrio folding mirrors with Alu-Matt covers. Fellow Audi nerds will get some of that garbage and bullet statements :cheesygrin:

    Glad all is well. Any chance of getting a label to move the SB6K down the line?

    Ken - Yes, Let me get ramped up again as I've been multi-tasked. Thanks to F1Nut for pushing the LSiM demo while I pretty much disappeared. Everyone that knows me personally has access so I figured it would pann out but what I didn't factor in was the folks that only know me from here...by psuedonym, not name, so it was a mess. It's all being righted and handled so hang out Polkies.

    Mark,
    Nice ride.
    By the way, living where I do, I am not familiar with the term 'fluffer'.
    What does that entail? Is it a union only position with the movie industry?
