Turns out, even that does nothing for the ten mini-spokes on each of those wheels, so I cleaned the wheels by hand. Right after I took the pictures, because logic.

Note that the car has engaged stealth mode, and has changed its color to perfectly match the driveway it is sitting in.

Nope, factory Audi wheels. I think they were the upgrade ones, but I could be wrong.

Yup. There's a guy I see on my daily (have yet to get sr20) but he has a B5 wagon on those exact wheels. 5 x112?

Your A8 looks amazing! That's my favorite body style for the big Audi. Heck, even the beige looks perfect on it! and you're giving me an idea with those rims...

Thanks! I'm not sure on the beige, but it is starting to grow on me.

Mind if I ask how much you paid for that? I want a car *exactly* like that.

I love it! suits the Audi well.

Also, makes my mom's jetta and my Stepdad's GTI look plebian. Love it for that!

I always say I'll wash my car, then I look at the peeling paint and think "Nothing is going to make this look better, why waste the time?"

Yeah, hasn't been washed in over 5 years...

Very nice work, I do like a silver car as it's so much easier to work with than many others. Best thing for spoke gaps that small is an old toothbrush (or new if you wish) and some shampoo and water then wrap a microfibre cloth around your finger and wipe around after a rinse.

It's often the case, clean the car, take a photo or two then notice there is something you missed.

I got too excited about getting my detailing plates (so I don't have to edit the actual licence plates when I take photos of a car I've done) and put them on the car, took a photo then thought I really must clean off those 'bird bombs'.

Mine is a cousin of sorts it's the same/similar platform to the Audi A6 Avant.
