Agreed, colour coded maybe, I still love the vehicle though, if them coatings started to fail in six months or so could look like a scruffy car very quickly but I’m older and too sensible to look past that.
My current car is an Audi A6 C8 Avant,fabulous car,same model as yours the S line,what have you done!!!Some things are better left as is,especially when I think the car is pleasing on the eye and the wheels WTF NO Joe!!! 😮However Great content, Cheers
I much prefer the look of the car though Joe. I also really like your Cayenne V8!! Was looking at those before purchasing my Panamera Diesel ( in white ) with black wheels funnily enough
Every Audi say on your forecourt is one less sat 3 inches from someones rear bumper being more important than everyone else, which can only be a good thing.
I like it. Audi actually do this themselves call it the black edition (different wheels obviously). My only constructive critistism would be to replace the cenrre caps with black Audi ones.
It suits the gun metal colour & definitely looks great. Personally I prefer it OG with all its Jewellery, but thats just personal preference. Hope it sells well fella. All the best
Hi Joe after watching Dave and seeing over last few months how successful he has been with making his changes I hope you have the same success, think he tends to just out source the work on his apart from maybe internally changing the grilles , but if you can do it internally why not , very best of luck watch this space 👍🏻
Interesting idea to generate a sale. If I was looking for one of these, I would have been happy with the alloys but the other parts would put me off as they would scream boy racer to me. I await the outcome with interest.
Love it. Exhaust tips and some spacers would finish it off nicely. Personally would have tried to get some of the oem 20” S Line 5 spokes. Budget aftermarket alloys on a car that expensive doesn't quite seem right but get that it makes sense to keep the same tyres etc.
Hello from Ireland again, Joe. Great idea bro. It looks 100 times better. It did look a small bit plain, but it's away better. Keep up the great work Joe. 👌👏👏👏👏
Pop the exhaust tip on it and I think it will appeal to the customers you have in mind. Alloys wouldn't have been my choice but personal preference and you have data from your co-host to support the decision. Hope it sells quick 💥🏎️💨
Sorry, sort of car I would avoid when buying. Splitters and spoilers make it look like a boy racer has had it and ragged it. Some blacking out of chrome trim is fine but the stuck on bits of plastic just do not do the car justice, IMHO obvioulsy.
It was fugly before and it’s still fugly!!! Having said that I doubt if most Audi drivers will notice they’re too busy carving everyone else up!!! Hope you sell it soon though Joe. Be interesting to see if you can get the £57k you want for that Taycan
Fair play to you for trying it. Works for Dave’s market, bound to work for the chavs in Weston 👍🏼 at least you can say it’s been modified but not raced yet
I told my insurance that I put spliters and a spolier on my old car and wheel spacers . It didn't change anything. My mate had his car wrapped and it never affected the insurance.
@@Neil-Hanson67 I bought it like that from the garage that's all you need to say what can they say as long you haven't then insurance or abit stopped lol
All the silver accents inside the car now no longer match the outer. But i can see why you've done it, and it does look decent. Plus, it's your car. You can do what you like with it after all. You defo haven't ruined it.
Certainly attracts a different market. Personally not big on black wheels generally but looks better than standard I would say, good job overall hope it sells
To be fair, it's a really nice car and looks well priced, but if it's been sat for that long with no interest, then i think you've done the right thing. It would definitely appeal to me and I'm fairly sure it will be far more appealling to a wider audience. Fair play for taking the chance 👍
I think you have improved it a ton - especially with the wheels and dechroming it. It’s like adding a sport package. Not crazy about the rear spoiler but I don’t hate it. I would bet it sells pretty quick.
Well done on the Audi, looks great and hopefully the right person will come along and fall in love with it. It looks just that bit different from the norm and some people like that, and it will probably be unique in the area in any case. Fingers crossed!
Cheapened the look of the car in my opinion but credit to you the car is not selling so you are taking a risk and doing something different with it. This black out look is very popular at the moment. Good luck
Sold mine about 1 year ago,superb cars,super comfortable and smooth...if its not selling ill assume its got galactic miles,especially at your price point,which seems very very cheap for a 19plate sline
Good on you for trying something to perhaps appeal to another market for the A6. I think it would have shifted by now if it was an Avant. I think all Audi’s in A4 and A6 Avant variant look better and are more sought after than the saloons.
It’s a matter of taste how you like a car, that’s why motor manufactures have an options list, it may not be to my taste but the next guy in line may like it, lots of OEM cars out there but not so many with mods.
Certainly an improvement with the more aggressive look, which would be particularly suited to the usual more aggressive Audi drivers ! The boot spoiler though, yuk, a spoiler of the boot indeed. Worth trying these changes to the car, and expect it should now sell much faster, so hopefully money well spent.
Paint it pink with orange spots and put monster truck wheels on it if it sells for a decent margin. People seem to forget your only purpose as a business is to buy and sell cars - you can’t ruin anything that is subjective mate. Hope it now sells
Looks way better Joe! Sometimes you just need to think outside the box, much better chance of selling now! I have Maxton bits on my RS, great quality and looks cool 😎
It’s a great approach. After all if successful then you begin to create your own niche by tricking up a few of the cars you sell. Nothing ventured and all that!
Joe I hope it Sells and totally understand why you done it,you've had the car to long but to be honest I don't like, it was a great car before. I would of traded it.
Looking good Joe, Im a fan of Pimping stock up a bit thats not selling,>Its a really hard one to call but up here (Scotland) and where I am some times its a step too far. For example, Black wheels seems to put people off but going from a standard 16, or 17 inch to an 18 or 19 seems to work (specifically on Audi and VW stock which is pretty much what I sell. Great channel
Sack off the fox centre caps and put some nice fresh audi ones on. Makes them look more OEM+, otherwise you'll have it another 60 days. Also allow the customer the option to have the oem wheels
GLWS. Not my cuppa ☕️. I like the dechrome though. Couldve got a satin/matte finish on the wheels… unfor with gloss you visually lose the design within the arch so they look like dustbin lids
I would buy the car and the first thing I would do is switch back to silver rims not necessarily the ones that came on it but silver appeals to me more. The blacking out of the chrome around the windows is a plus. I would pull off the cheap spoiler. Defuser is fine but I could get one I like better. Be interesting to see if interest in the car increases. Too bad you are in the UK. Good luck.
Not for me, they are the type of mods I wouldn’t really say would attract buyers of A6’s. Probably mods more suited to small hatchbacks to attract younger drivers
Great idea to freshen up aging stock. Not sure about the boot spoiler, it looks like batmans mask. Front grill and wheels look well. Did you consider having the original wheels painted rather than replaced?
Joe, have a look at FullDip. Works the same as plastidip but you can get it in metallic colours and either leave as is for a matte or satin finish or they do 2 gloss products. One is like Glossifier and the other is a bit trickier but better gloss and solvent resistant, Would be a little harder to peel off but doable. “super acrillo barniz” Spanish brand so I’ve probably misspelled it, best practice is to wait 24 hrs after the colour before spraying or it may react in my experience 👍🏼
My son is a trader, been doing mods to bmw, Audi range rovers etc. for years. Wheels definitely should have been 20in , lower profile tyres! Front grille , should have been changed . Plastidip is a diy job horrendous! Should of got them vinyl wrapped. Should not mix gloss and Matt finishes!
20 inch = more unsprung weight, increase in fuel consumption, road noise, messes with the handling, costs of tyre replacements and extra insurance. Then the cheap nasty tyres on it must be horrendous in the corners.
At first, due to my purist OCD, I thought, oh no it will ruin the factory originality of this lovely Audi. However, seeing the finished product, I think it looks great, less mundane, more aggressive presence. If I were looking for a sporty prestige saloon, this would probably be it❤.
I'll be honest it's not my cup of tea,but I like the fact you're not sitting on your hands,and you're trying something different to shift the stock,and I know it will appeal to someone.
I will have to admit, it does look as though it has come out of the factory. The additional parts added should make it unique and give you the advantage of selling. I would bet that you gain more interest in the car.
Went to see an RS3 the other day with view to purchase. It had a Maxton body kit fitted. Looked dreadful and walked away. Although the Audi dealer said they were going to remove it. Just looked boy racer 'ish' As for de-chroming, great. Hate chrome or brushed aluminium. As for wheels. Jury's out.
You can’t beat a bit of maxton design on your car. I think it’s a massive improvement. Yes it’s not standard but if people wanted a standard car it would have sold by now no?
Personally, I don't like black parts on a car, I always think 'drug dealer', plus you don't see the details on the wheels when they are in black, just look like a toy car ;)
Initially I thought silly idea, but assuming you fix the exhaust issue it turned OK. Like that you left the badges silver. Got to do something with it. Dobt imagine an A6 saloon to be a desirable car aside from a wannabe travelling rep. 😊
Enjoyed the video - I think black wheels (maybe even the OEM ones in black) and blacked-out chrome would have done, but like you said, won't suit everyone. I'd skip the splitter/diffuser. The spoiler is probably ok. I only think this because people will look at that and think it's been ragged around and/or an ex-dealer's car. What's the deal with the Taycan in the background - didn't see a video about it? Is one upcoming?
Love those wheels! Mate you got any BMWs running 18s because I have a nearly brand new set of msw74 gloss blackwith Michelin pilot sport 4s (1mm used and BMW spec ones with star) that I had on my 4 series before I sold it and they’re just sitting around right now. I paid nearly 2k for both together but would be open to offers over 600 which imo is well worth it because they transform the car. I could even drop them off.

Wheels would of looked better with Audi centre caps, especially as FOX are known as a bit of a budget brand but overall I liked it 👍🏼
Would have...
Agree , also think a more subtle boot spoiler aswell.
Not a fan of the boot spoiler but the rest works, some Audi centre caps in black would set the wheels off better IMO.
Spot on
Agreed, colour coded maybe, I still love the vehicle though, if them coatings started to fail in six months or so could look like a scruffy car very quickly but I’m older and too sensible to look past that.
I agree, that boot spoiler could actually be creating drag instead of increased downforce unless the car has been tested in the windtunnel.
My current car is an Audi A6 C8 Avant,fabulous car,same model as yours the S line,what have you done!!!Some things are better left as is,especially when I think the car is pleasing on the eye and the wheels WTF NO Joe!!! 😮However Great content, Cheers
Like the idea!! wheels need Audi centres
I much prefer the look of the car though Joe. I also really like your Cayenne V8!! Was looking at those before purchasing my Panamera Diesel ( in white ) with black wheels funnily enough

The black looks far better than chrome. I'd personally have left off the boot lip and kept the audi caps on the wheels.
I like it. Audi actually do this themselves call it the black edition (different wheels obviously). My only constructive critistism would be to replace the cenrre caps with black Audi ones.
To be fare it looks kind of really nice mate👌youl always get some people like the chrome look and others dislike it totally!💯👌👍
Fair...
I think you’re onto a winner there Joe 100% improved the look of the car. I’d deffo stick some spacers on for the finishing touch.
I would keep the OG alloys and offer them to the new buyer first as you can guarantee when they go to sell it the garage will ask for the OG alloys
It suits the gun metal colour & definitely looks great.
Personally I prefer it OG with all its Jewellery, but thats just personal preference.
Hope it sells well fella.
All the best
Grill and front end looks great , overall big improvement. Park it out the front , busy road, it'll get noticed 👍
Looks fine to me - I agree with the majority on here to change the centre caps and add some spacers. Hope it sells quickly 🙌
Hi Joe after watching Dave and seeing over last few months how successful he has been with making his changes I hope you have the same success, think he tends to just out source the work on his apart from maybe internally changing the grilles , but if you can do it internally why not , very best of luck watch this space 👍🏻
Yes, Michael. I have been watching Dave's channel as well. And I totally agree with you bro. 😅😅
I would always put original centre caps back onto the wheels it just keeps it looking original
Looks great Joe, needs exhaust tips and wheel spacers.

Im not a fan of it sorry Joe, what do I know im an old fart. 😂
I'm same.
Plasti dip and gloss add ons are just big NoNo. Very tacky, chavish and devaluing 😮
Totally agree. Utter crap
It was fugly before and it’s still fugly!!! Having said that I doubt if most Audi drivers will notice they’re too busy carving everyone else up!!! Hope you sell it soon though Joe.
Be interesting to see if you can get the £57k you want for that Taycan
Fair play to you for trying it. Works for Dave’s market, bound to work for the chavs in Weston 👍🏼 at least you can say it’s been modified but not raced yet
*My option, it's nothing special, just looks like an ordinary family car, if you want sports car then BUY A sports car , not a family car sported up*
The owners insurance has just doubled 😂. Has you vehicle been modified in any way?.
I told my insurance that I put spliters and a spolier on my old car and wheel spacers . It didn't change anything. My mate had his car wrapped and it never affected the insurance.
It won’t double if you use the correct insurance company.
@@Neil-Hanson67 I bought it like that from the garage that's all you need to say what can they say as long you haven't then insurance or abit stopped lol

Cover the interior trims with carbon fibre effect films (but I personally prefer real carbon in my own car).
YES I think the nicer looking cars would always benefit with just a little sprucing up, it's a good investment!
Just change the centre caps of the alloys to black audi ones and it'll look good 👍
I think it’s a big improvement, would definitely appeal to me looking like this compared to before. Nice work
I love it Joe, it’s tastefully done and looks fantastic. I think it fits in with your vision of selling more interesting stuff too.
them mods have 💯 lifted it,puts it across to a wider audience..
Great job 👏🏽
Nice touch with the Audi good call on the extras the wheels, spoiler and de Chrome set it off nicely 🎉
I'm just a woman who likes nice looking cars and I love the new look Joe. Its a thumbs up from me, good luck in selling it 👍
Certainly attracts a different market. Personally not big on black wheels generally but looks better than standard I would say, good job overall hope it sells
forget that more like that porsche behind you the white one with 4 doors how much .
To be fair, it's a really nice car and looks well priced, but if it's been sat for that long with no interest, then i think you've done the right thing. It would definitely appeal to me and I'm fairly sure it will be far more appealling to a wider audience. Fair play for taking the chance 👍

Black wheels and Plasti Dip well worth doing, the plastic spoiler etc. not so sure.
I approve!!! Looks sweet!! And I’m not usually one to say that about an Audi.
Well done on the Audi, looks great and hopefully the right person will come along and fall in love with it. It looks just that bit different from the norm and some people like that, and it will probably be unique in the area in any case. Fingers crossed!
I think you’ve lifted the looks to a good oem plus look. Looks really good
Well, if you are 17-30 love it. If you are 31-100 you hate it I’m 38. Thank you.

It’s a great approach. After all if successful then you begin to create your own niche by tricking up a few of the cars you sell. Nothing ventured and all that!
Improved it in my opinion. If you do tasty modifications like the Lovely company do, it improves the car.
Looks so much better. That must be the Boy Racer in me coming out. Hope it sells for you.
Ruined it totally
No he hasn't. Your just been negative for sake of it
I agree, totally ruined and wouldn’t call this OEM+ whatsoever - terrible
HaHaHaHa. HaHaHaHa. Should sell no probs.
@@crichussey9167 dude. What car do you drive? The odds are you can't afford it anyway so why worry?
@@DaleSteel don’t know how you got to those odds. Anyone would have thought your father modified it with the way you’re defending it 🤣🤣 butt hurt
Whatever floats your boat, it’s far beyond my interest. Looks lovely though.
I'd have left the front and rear splitters off, Joe. The rest looks really good...
Great content Joe. That looks amazing.
Can’t fault you for trying, good luck to you, when you sell it who’s laughing then 👍👍 love the white milk float in the background 👍

I’m 46 and much prefer the chrome, looks nice though, love the wheels joe
Looks good Joe, does make a difference to the look,audi centres for OEM look 👀
Looks so much smarter / aggressive particularly front
Nothing beats a genuine car, sorry none gen parts crap, black wheels and boot spoiler looks horrific, car looks shit, love the show though.
Joe the shorter vids are the best way forward, the 1hr ones need too much popcorn 🍿👍

If it’s not selling then you have to do something with it. Someone will love it.
I like it well done Joe specifically the black wheels
It looks great! If I had the money I would love it!!! Keep trying things!!!!
Looks good, Joe. I hope that it works for you. Speculate to accumulate!
Looks much better. Nice work
Enjoyed that video and it looks loads better!
it will just cause grief with insurance. If the buyer bothers with that! Does look ok though.
I will have to admit, it does look as though it has come out of the factory. The additional parts added should make it unique and give you the advantage of selling. I would bet that you gain more interest in the car.
Shadowline finish is great. Not a fan of the spoiler but I think you have enhanced the car and it will appeal to younger kids.
Went to see an RS3 the other day with view to purchase. It had a Maxton body kit fitted. Looked dreadful and walked away. Although the Audi dealer said they were going to remove it. Just looked boy racer 'ish' As for de-chroming, great. Hate chrome or brushed aluminium. As for wheels. Jury's out.

Looks much better 😍 the old chrome looks naff. Maybe a cheky de-badge too, who needs badges? & messes with my OCD 🤣
Initially I thought silly idea, but assuming you fix the exhaust issue it turned OK. Like that you left the badges silver.
Got to do something with it. Dobt imagine an A6 saloon to be a desirable car aside from a wannabe travelling rep. 😊
Looks great, it's definitely worth a try
Enjoyed the video - I think black wheels (maybe even the OEM ones in black) and blacked-out chrome would have done, but like you said, won't suit everyone. I'd skip the splitter/diffuser. The spoiler is probably ok. I only think this because people will look at that and think it's been ragged around and/or an ex-dealer's car.
What's the deal with the Taycan in the background - didn't see a video about it? Is one upcoming?
Love those wheels!

I paid nearly 2k for both together but would be open to offers over 600 which imo is well worth it because they transform the car. I could even drop them off.
