    Jesse's Nardo RS7 Build Thread

    She is starting to come together!!! I absolutely love this car. I know most on this forum like or have the wagon but for some reason I prefer the looks of the sportback, which helped me get my car sooner and I got a little bit of a discount so all is good. I purchased the car from Audi Santa Monica about 2 months ago. First order of business was window tint, 20% all around. I knew I wanted to do something different with the calipers so I went with yellow as I knew they would pop with satin black wheels and match nicely with my CA throwback black and yellow plate and all black trim. Decided on my wheels (Vossen HF-3 Satin black) and couldn't be happier. Wheels had been ordered for a while but took a little longer to come in due to covid and custom finish. Thanks Sean at Tag Motorsports, great shop that I have done business with for years. Now to lowering the car, obviously we have options and I wasn't sure which route I was going to go. I had a Cete module in my C7 which was great until it failed on me, which I think was an anomaly. In the end I hit up Tyler from Pacific German and drove up there over the weekend and they lowered my car with Odis 25 millimeters in the front and 20 millimeters in the rear which give it a perfectly even stance on a level surface. I am very impressed with Pacific German btw, just great people and at the end of the day are car enthusiasts.
    Next on the docket is to get my rear resonator (suitcase muffler) deleted this week, then ECU tune options. I'm thinking I may do the MTM piggyback option. Here she is, I am so happy!

    Ha, good point! I know we pay a lot in taxes in CA but thankfully our roads are pristine for the most part, well at least where I live. Plus as you know the weather, well there isn't any weather.

    I think your rear spoiler is broken.

    Looks amazing!!! I am debating getting my suspension lowered a bit but given the roads here and winter I will think about it.

    Haha, thanks again buddy, so happy with it! The offset on the wife's wheels are very aggressive and have 305 tires so I can't go any lower than the stock ride in dynamic or I will rub as it rubs a wee bit now. Maybe new wheels in our future for hers though.

    Nice cars.

    Question: Are those Vossens and what tint, satin or gloss black? I’m looking to get similar wheels for my ride.
