So far, I’ve had matrix lights unlocked by NPG, Thule evo wing rails, euro oem aspherical side mirror glass installed, euro performance wire tap for dash cam and radar and blacked out the amber reflectors with 3m glossy vinyl. I usually buy e codes, but it’s too expensive for this car. I also had a stealth hitch installed; you can’t see it and there is no need to cut or replace rear valence. Here is the link for 3m glossy vinyl that matches the black optic trim very well:

I have 10/12.5 mm spacers coming and will replace the fog light switch with euro one to enable rear fogs.
My other cars are stage 3 s7 (RS turbos) and APR supercharged v8 s5 with 6 speed manual. Almost 1700 hp between the 3 😁

Boom just ordered new oem switch from eBay.de.
I find it ridiculous that US cars don’t typically have this enabled — guess Americans don’t know when/how to use rear fogs.
Got spacer installation appt this Friday! Booom.

Not really a mod, but I’m proud of my purchase. Found on facebook marketplace where my sister lives, a brand now privacy cover and oem trunk mat. Got them both for $70 brand new!!
Then I grabbed an old Audi cargo net that doesn’t fit the anchors in the sq. So I used a heat gun to warm the plastic and bent them so things would fit.
next are spacers and then prob convince my wife for lowering links. 😁 hopefully I will get my new rear fog switch to install over thanksgiving.

2 more pics. Pretty flush look with 10/12.5 22” et26 if I recall. I have not had to remove that fender bolt so far bc I have not heard running on dynamic.
Second pic is the grandpa version of the Lambo engine. The s7 has rs7 turbos and tune; that’s oem rs7 front end too. It’s faster than sq7 rt now bc sq is not tuned.

Transmission mount insert installed. I have 034 on my s7 and then randomly bought a knock off one on Amazon for my q5. I saw no difference be 034 and knockoff for double price. I put knockoff on s5 too and it works great.
so I bought this cts mount on ecs tuning for half of 034. If you look at 034 mount, this looks beefier imo.
very easy to install as long as you can reach it. I did use rubber mallet to smack it in quicker. I used thread locker bc 034 supplies it with theirs. Drove it around and just like my other cars, shifting feels more crisp and defined. I don’t hear more noise or vibration, but also didn’t with other cars.
now I’m just waiting for fog light which will be next week’s install!
