Im just trying to give my quat a bit more personality, and since
she'll be raced I figured running the tricolors is a bit of hommage to
the past aces who drove the quattro's in anger...wait till i get my
exhuast done...im gonna let that 5 breathe! I know all the werks cars
were body in whites, but mine is, correct or not I think it will add
some pizzaz to her faded flanks..Thanks to all who gave info, I knew I
could count on you guys.
