UPDATE! Rear window and surround are installed!!!. Epoxy is curing as I'm typing.
I guess the tailgate will be the next big step.

Are you going to make the tailgate work like a Dodge PU?
You know, down as regular, and like a door (swing out) that would be trick.
Or put a motor on it and make it open and close remotely, now that would really be trick.....

I would love to use the Audi rear door hardware (hinges, latches and handles) to make a super trick tailgate, but, well, let's just say not now.

I'm still pecking away at my audi s4.
Today I epoxyed the tailgate.
I sure hope I did it right.
Then I got back on those taillights.
Making the hole fit the taillights.

OK, when it comes time to shoot some color, have any ideas yet (yes, I know it's way down the list, but just asking) and any "trick" features you are going to build in? I know it's way down the to do list, so I won't hold you to it. Just asking if there is anything planned?
