Audi S4/RS4 Widebody - Prep - Paint Correction
Much like the other one we did early this year.....
This car belongs to another customer that has always brought his cars to the next level, this is a 2002 Audi S4 Avant that was converted to an RS4 using all factory parts coming from Germany. Not sure if he has changed his mod list yet but I believe by the time this is done it will be 600-700 crank hp! After the body panels were installed it went in for paint....below is what we needed to do We wrapped: 1. Side skirts 2. Top of rear bumper 3. Full Front bumper 4. Gas Cap 5. Door Handles The total time this took was 50 hours with the 3 of us, Dan, Tom, and I. Long days and nights to prep this one for H20.
