how does it look in the metal?
It looks good, certainly much better than that crappy iPhone picture can ever do justice to.

But what it lacks is the menace, the anger, and pure unadultered distillation of evil that can only come from a jet black C63.

LOL

It's still just potential future Mrs. Jeffield at this time.

Death sentence hasn't been passed yet.

What I really don't get is why Audi makes the RS4 (and S4 too, come to think of it), in that crazy assed yellow. Audis are arguably even more understated than MBs and Bimmers and yet they put some very loud colours on that car. The Nogaro Blue RS4 also screams "look at me".

I just ran into a roadblock in NVan. Cop tells me "I know it looks cool, but having your fog lights on when there is no fog is a ticket able offense". I had no idea you could get a ticket for having them on, then again, I have been questioned for my stock tint and have been asked to have it removed. Is there any truth to this?

He was so preoccupied with my fogs he never questioned my lack of a front plate. Phew!

He was just giving you a hard time. There is a retired rcmp officer on VE that keeps us in touch with the difference between right and wrong. Here is what he said:

In BC you can run your fog lights at any time, you just cannot run them instead of headlights unless "atmospheric conditions make the use of headlights disadvantageous.

Fog lights may be operated at any time, but when they are on, park, tail, license and clearance lamps (if any) must be lit also. Fog lights may be used in place of headlamps when atmospheric conditions make the use of headlights disadvantageous. That might not be during night, but is most likely.

Fog lamps

4.11 (1) A motor vehicle may be equipped with 2 fog lamps, mounted on the front of the vehicle below the headlamps, that are capable of displaying only white or amber light.

(2) Each fog lamp must be

(a) mounted not more than 30 cm below the headlamps, and

(b) adjusted and aimed so that, at a distance of 8 m from the lamp, the centre of the beam is at least 10 cm below the height of the fog lamp.

(3) The fog lamp wiring and switch must permit simultaneous operation of the parking lamps, tail lamps, licence plate lamp and, if required, clearance lamps.

(4) The operator of a vehicle may use fog lamps instead of headlamps when atmospheric conditions make the use of headlamps disadvantageous.
I hope this helps clear it up. Consider youreslf lucky for no front plate ticket

Thanks for the info Prab.
I was almost certain it wasnt an offense but I didn't want to say much and push my luck since he didn't point out the plate.

Rock chip in Vancouver?? We're used to it here because of all the construction during the real estate boom. Another thing we live with are nails and other construction materials these trucks dump onto to the road and get embeded into the tire.
