alright i think i got it. so heres a few pics of RS5 #590. I got the Seibon hood and spoiler. Im not a very big fan of carbon fiber but i had to think of something that would go good with the gold. We sanded off the regular gel coat that most carbon parts are finished with and layed on some gold pearl with a couple coats of super glossy clear coat. it has a real "ghost" type effect where u can only see the gold at certain angles. Also it should last for a long long time now that its got all that clear coat on it. I think it came out pretty nice. . . oh and by the way, Seibon has an amzingly high quality product with the best fitment i have ever seen for carbon fiber. Seibon has got to be the best for cf.

The hatch isn't fully re-assembled since I just had the glass installed today, will be taken care of first thing tomorrow morning. And I put the Rumion Tails in the other day so I still need to wire the reverse lights. The only problem is that it's getting colder up here in MA so I'm not sure if I'm going to shave out the reverse light yet, may just put it off until spring

Thank you for that. I really like your set up, makes the round box look more aggressive. That hood flows well with the car. Its nice to see that the fitmet on those fenders is good too. Yours seem to fit better then the ones pictured on thier website. Props
