Introducing: Lady Jane

I got her at the end of April from a meticulous owner in Phoenix who took excellent care of her – she’s mint! Anyway, I’ve been modding her for the past two months so this is her big reveal

sooo pretty.. nice job!

Hi,

Very nice, I especially like what you did to the wheels (Paint? Powdercoat?).

Btw, what Clarion HU did you go with and why? The reason I ask is that with the recent audio upgrades I made (amp, cap, speakers), it turned out to be like changing the drapes in the living room - nice, but not quite there. I am now looking into a new head unit (probably a Nak), but am open to hearing what others have done.

Anyway, Best of Luck! It looks Great! Happy Motoring! ...Jim'85TE

I think that's the first car I've liked the looks of the round light coversion on.

Very nice indeed.

Very nice Luke! Ditto the round tail lights. Color coded wheels don't usually pull my string but yours do look sweet.

Keep up the good work and get that Raid wheel.

Absolutely gorgeous, never considered the white coachwork wheel combination but it looks really good,
very subtle and effective upgrades, anymore planned ?

[kylie]

Beautiful!!!!!! Car looks fab in white. Very clean too I might add

[unity1]

Very nice

Thanks a lot guys, sincerely. No more exterior mods planned, but the paint work will be redone. Has anyone else with Monaco White had a hard time matching the color? It seems to change shade significantly based on angle.

Lotus Guy - The wheels were scuffed, painted, clear coated, buffed. That's the only way the shop could match the color exactly. As far as the Clarion goes I chose it based on features, price, and the fact that it is does not have the in your face look of most units on the market. I have not had it installed yet (hence no pictures) so I can not comment on the sound.

Luke.

I must say the car looks great, matching the wheels to the body looks particularly nice in white.

BTW - it looks like your right rear side marker lamp is out.

Ahhh a nice white S4!!! Amazing looking car man!! I dont particular like the white wheels, but its doesnt look bad either.

Lets see some interior pics!!

The light conversion doesnt look half bad either. It seems the S4 looks okay with the light conversion. Given your car and the red S4 that was at the NY auto show Lotus club. I cant really see putting the conversion with an S4s wing.

Thanks. I wish the paint matched, but you get the idea.

...er?

[kmaier]

The pic with the headlights up (and lights on) show that the right front marker light is lit but the right rear marker appears out... or maybe it's just me.

Ah!! Nice catch, yet another complaint for the body shop! Thanks..

[th4neuk]

Not that I'm biased but the white looks great. Not that often you see a white S4. Great car

Have wanted to see an '02 rear in white,first one i've seen and i like it a lot .
The wheels look cool too,if i had not seen them i would not have thought they would work,but they do.
Nice one.

Alan's right,later cars in White are a rare sight.

Very nice!

I must admit, I thought you were going to trash a mint condition car by changing everything, but it really looks great...especially the rims! Even the tail lights look fantastic on it.

I'll have to tell Steve...I don't think he'll recognize it!
