Nemesis Turbo Blue 2020 S5 coupe build

**Tommy@Nemesis** · 07-19-2020 09:08 AM

Hey everyone! The lease was up on my Sepang Blue 2018 S5 and I was torn between keeping it or leasing a 2020 facelift.

I had ordered myself a Turbo Blue coupe when the ordering opened, but I must admit that I didn’t love the facelift or Turbo Blue at first.

Once I realized that almost all my 2018 stuff would swap over, I decided to just go for it.

I am definitely happy with the decision and the Turbo Blue has really grown on me. I plan on running a black wheel once I decide on the style, and will update this thread as it progresses!

Here is the build so far:

-AWE Touring exhaust with resonator delete
-AWE Airgate with lid
-ABT piggyback AEC tune
-ABT HAS
-20x9 BBS LM
-034 rear sway
-034 strut mount
-034 aluminum mount setup
-R8 paddles with PK extenders
-Carbon mirrors
-Carbon Design rear spoiler

I’ll chime in that I think the turbo blue looks fantastic.

I think the wheels on there now look slick, and would not switch them.

The crease on the side of the body casts enough of a shadow to protect a small child from the sun.

Congrats!

Love the color ! Congrats on the new queen !

Wow just wow is all that I can say.

Great job Tommy. Looks sweet. I am still not sold on the B9.5 face lift a well, but I have a feeling it will grow on me once I see more of these modded. The current BBS wheels look great too, but I agree that a black set will work better with the black optics. It worked better with the aluminum trim on the previous car in my opinion.

Great color! Congrats and enjoy.

Looks great!

**BklynSQ5** · 07-20-2020 06:21 AM

Wow this is absolutely fantastic! I love the facelift so much and that Turbo Blue in person really pops and stands out! Beautifully done!

Thanks! Yea I love the LM's too, but I really want to see how the black looks against that color

Audi just really does blue cars great. The last two audi's I've owned were blue. I will continue that trend whenever I trade/purchase another.

Agreed, same, and same.

It look really nice!! I wanted that Turbo Blue, but it was not available so I went with Navarra Blue instead

0% chance that black wheels look better than these pictured.

0.0%

Just saying.

I agree but if he's got a lot of black on it, it sticks out. I'm a silver wheel guy though.

Well I got the black CI-R’s today so hopefully they’ll go on this weekend.

I’m removing the rim guards too so they are all black.

If they don’t look better than the LM’s I won’t keep them

A few more pics too

**Desert Dead** · 07-30-2020 11:23 AM

There is no doubt that they will look slick as hell.

The same as there is no possible way for them to look “better”. That curbside pic is sublime.

Don’t change for the sake of change, Tommy!

^ Yeah, I'm not sure you're gonna be able to beat that setup with the LMs. I don't usually like the "dish" style of wheel, but man that looks perfect! I wouldn't change that up.

**antoff83** · 07-30-2020 02:32 PM

Looks great!

**chrisdazzo** · 07-30-2020 04:16 PM

RIP Sepang!

Looks brilliant! good progress.

Looking at the 2 x S5's coupes do you think the 2020 front bumper fit the 2018 are the lights, grill etc the same width etc? even the back lights look the same size etc??

**Mops@Nemesis** · 07-31-2020 08:15 AM

Looking great Tommy!

Black LMs? 😎

Like any good drug dealer, merely pointing out choices to an addict.

Nailed it!

**jdmnomore** · 08-03-2020 04:01 AM

I'm sure this has been said but I think the face lifted S5s look better where as the update looks worst on the S4s. Looking at this car almost makes me wonder who needs an RS? Lol

UPDATE- so the CI-R’s ended up not working because I wanted the 10” width and they will only fit perfect on the RS5.

So the LM’s are still on and here are some pics with my race car
