My a6 c6 3.0 TDI quattro

[gabitza121]

Hello everyone I bought this a6 one year ago.
I'm gone post because in one year it happened many things to the car.

It's a
AUDI A6 C6 4F ESTATE
Year 2006
3.0 tdi quattro

When I got the car was grey which wasn't my first option but the price made the difference.

I'm gone add tomorrow some pictures because I dont have an account which is hosting my pictures

Ps:Sorry if I'm not writing perfect in English

My first thing in my minde was the wheels and because I always liked this model, I bought this set at a good price having in my minde to use them all 2016 summer because I got the wheels whit really good tyres and when winter comes to buy 4 winter tyres for this rims which are 18' and for summer setup to get a pair of 19'



After that I started to look more to see what could I improve to my car and I decided to change the windows film whit one which almost looks like PRIVACY GLASS and I tinted the front windows whit the level of window film which is legal in Europe.
And to stope baking my dashboard I told to boy's from the garage to put window film even on windscreen and sun roof.
To have a bit of UV protection.
Same guys they polished the headlights and taillights and put on them a clear film for protection.





After this I decided to do some changes for my interior and I had in my mind to get piano black trims,buttons whit aluminium and S-line steering whell.
And spending some time on ebay I discovered the piano black trims are quite expensive(around 500e) and I found carbon trims from an RS6 and I couldn't stop not buying them.
Mean while I was waiting for the trims I was looking for steering wheel and I found this flat bottom s-line steering wheel and I bought a knob shift for audi a6 c7 and I was waiting for all parts to arrive.
And I bought an IC FRAME to be painted PIANO BLACK to have everything prepared for swap when I have all the parts.

Thats a great looking interior! Thats exactly what Ive been wanting to do. I have the same black interior, so thanks for letting me know what it would look like! Where did you get the carbon fibre trim pieces? How was it installing all the new switches?

[gabitza121]

The carbon trims I got them on ebay from Germany, the switches are OEM saw was plug&play but you have to make all the car pices.
But it's cheap change whit big impact when you see all the aluminium which in my opinion is brightening all interior.
Later when I hav3 a bit more time I'm gonna put more details because it happened a lot more in 2016.

One more thing to have more gadgets for my car was an alarm Viper with smart start saw I can do some things to my car without being conditioned by distance only to have Internet connection on phone and the car to be in mobile signal area.


Then I started to get more part's for exterior.
-RS6 SPOILER (OEM)

-SIDE SKIRTS (FROM A4 B8 S-LINE OEM)


-RS6 19' WHEEL'S (OEM)


Having all this part's and exactly how I said in first post the silver grey of the car wasn't my option. I decided to paint all car whit something more rare.
Saw grey and chorme it's gonna be history because the car it's gonna be NARDO GREY&BLACK GLOSSY.

Some pictures during the process of painting (6 week's)















And here are some pictures whit the side skirts and spoiler

Next step in my project was the brakes,because the origanal one are a bad joke from AUDI.

Saw I'd swap on car my original setup for 385x36 front rotors and 330x22 rear rotors which is S6 setup.

I got ATE rotors and pads.
My first thing what I've done was to sandblasted the calipers and paint them grey and my next idea which I had was to sandblast the central part of the rotors and paint them to in grey whit termo resistant paint, I hope stays like that longer and it's not rusting as quickly normally does.


Front brakes






Rear brakes


Side view

Front brakes whit 19th inches wheel


The result can't be compared to what I had before but now I can't use rims smaller than 18th inches(a6 c7 4g rims only the a6 c6 4f doesn't work any more because of front calipers)

But I'm really happy with the brakes and I never would go smaller than 18' for rims but unfortunately my 18' wheels are no good any more.

[gabitza121]

And last one for 2016 was front+back seats from rs6 and door panels.

Here are some pictures whit the interior.




And for 2017 I have big plans let's hope everything goes well like in my mind.

[c@@kieMonsta]

Oh damn man. Next up, LED Tails and HID headlights amirite?

[se.farrell]

Holy Moly that is a great deal of work you've completed! (clap)(clap)(clap)

[gabitza121]

c@@kieMonsta that's in plan to but my next retrofit is still on interior and whit that one only few more details remains to do at interior:
Dashboard whit leather and few more part's.
And for exterior new front and rear bumpers,shocks and springs. ........its a long list.
Thanks se.farrell
