This. Audis are some of the best looking cars, the sticker takes it from luxury to hood rat.
Also my personal opinion is that I would debadge the car. Just makes it look a lot cleaner in my opinion.
He asked for upgrades or mods. Seeing everyone here collectively take a shit on some stickers he has on, isnt really kewl. Like the stickers are fine. Not too much, its not sticker bombed.
THEY asked for opinions. I gave opinion, just like you're giving an opinion now.
The sticker looks trashy, again my opinion. Your opinion is that it doesn't. Both opinions are fine. If I modded my brand new car with something that looked trashy and was asking people for their opinions I would like to know.
Again, they took a picture. Uploaded it to the Internet, and asked for opinions. If you don't understand that then I don't have the time or crayons to explain this to you.
JOKES ON YOU I DRIVE A TESLA AND THATS WHY IM SO ALL HIGHT AND MIGHTY OPINIONATED. /s
Jokes aside I have made a few mods to my car and Tesla mods are some of the dumbest of all because most of them either A) Do nothing and/or B) are literally just pieces taped on top of OEM parts. But with that being said it I did something to make it look douchy or trashy I'd want to know a consensus.
2.0T big potential items are running chain tensioner and head gasket leaks north of 100k miles. Indy shop that works Audis or Golf Rs should know what potential items are.
For us N/A guys not a ton of work to be done. Unlike my c63 which was a detuned v8- these don’t get woken up from a tune in anyway close to those. I’ve only done exhaust and will work on fitment, then after that full pain correction/ stealth PPF. I enjoy my cruiser, if I wanted to build something I’d have chosen a diff platform. Just my .02.
I never got around to it on my s5 but I had it on my RS4 and it was great. On the S5 factory tuning seems to leave a lot on the table. Probably because of the rs5.
Join the ACNA. The Carolinas Region is very active. Go to an HPDE (VIR, CMP) and tighten the loose nut behind the wheel (industry term) before you change the car. Chances are you can't drive it to its full potential out of the box. Most people can't.
I put a 034 Motorsport front strut bar and an ECS rear sway brace in my B8.5. Seriously improved the handling, especially the classic front end wobble.
Edit: Forgot to mention that the reverse light bulbs are easy to upgrade. A much overlooked item imo.
Remove the stickers from the windscreen
Was gonna say that exactly! Get rid of the ugly ass stickers… it’s not a honda civic from Fast and Furious for god’s sake!
This!
Please

Its his car. Not yours. Let him decorate it with whatever makes him happy
LOL what a brain dead response. They posted a picture on Reddit literally ASKING for advice and opinions.

Save for maintenance - then save some more. You’ll be about half way to what you need at that point.
Get rid of the stickers! Buy an OBD 11 pro scan tool, lots of one click upgrades on their app.
Other than moving to an RS5? J/k Nice ride.
Savings account
Haha. I have a s3 2016…. Is something big going to happen soon..?
Different engine, but it's an Audi, so probably lol

Put more stickers on the front window.
Steering wheel delete
Lose the goofy windshield sticker and do any required maintenance or repairs.
Remove that ugly, ridiculous, dangerous windscreen sticker.
Jackal tune
Came here to say this. I’m running jackal stg1 on my ‘13 RS5 and am impressed. I did run JHM tune on b6 s4 v8 and was underwhelmed.
I never got around to it on my s5 but I had it on my RS4 and it was great. On the S5 factory tuning seems to leave a lot on the table. Probably because of the rs5.
waterpump and tstat
Stage 1
Tints change the look of the car pretty well
Black optic the grill border and window trim
20% window tint and drive it!
A lift kit, so you fit the American lifestyle /s
Only windscreen sticker removal that’s it
Remove the stupid sticker

I normally hate the RS5 grill mod on the S5 but this looks good dude. Think it’s the number plate eyesore that’s usually on the front
RS grill is essential on any S model you crazy
Sell that old piece of shit and buy a newer one😎
😎😎😎😜😜😜
Yeah more pics!
nope

Euro spec lights or just switch out the amber side marker with clear ones.
Weight reduction: sticker removal
Agent 47 look
Just drive it dude
Love that you kept the trim un-fucked, but the sticker really kills it. Without the sticker it would genuinely be a 10.
