Brett,

Nice pics.  Wish I could've been there, but I was headed West instead.  I
think I know what to make of the "wrong lights" comment, though.  The
earlier Urq's in Europe (remember, US cars only got the DOT four square
setup), had their aero headlights with vertical front surface, and many
grill slats for the grill and smaller audi rings, whereas the later urq's
had sloped headlights and corresponding grill with larger Audi rings.  But
if the owner of the 'ahem' 25k Urq busts one of his 'proper' lenses, he'll
be disappointed to know he can only get the sloped lenses (the others are
NLA).  Ah, to enjoy a wonderful audi get together and the ensuing comradely
(usually).
