Just got confirmation of shipping for my OEM carpets coming from member [MENTION=144024]kstorm[/MENTION] thanks again!

Got the BakFlip off my old truck and installed it on the Ruby today. Took forever.... Much fine-tuning and measuring get it to fit just right again. I'm a perfectionist. Also took apart the stainless panels for the bike mounts, and added some black silicone sealant into the holes and under the panel to 100% waterproof them.

Also got some automotive grade adhesive rubber seals to further waterproof the bed. Put some under the cover and some on the edge of the bed where the tailgate closes. Not sure if it'll work, we'll see.





Some bungies make this a perfect cargo hold


My bike mounts


Sealed nice and tight...hopefully

Bonus points for using my dad's 30yr old tools that I hijacked before he moved?



Then I found this! drove back to the dealer and without even a question my guy made me an appointment to have it fixed, said he'd give me a loaner for the day. I love my salesman. He's even gonna pick the truck up from my apartment.



And the best mod so far, the Audi Sport License frame from my old audi

Should've made the horizontal piece of weather stripping cover the top of the vertical piece.

Talking about the highest two pieces? Good idea. Honestly the horizontal came after the vertical so it wasn't really planned all that well.

Used to always be on audizine, constantly reading, but never signed up or posted. My A4 was always stock. It was my first car in highschool so most of my money went into the bank not the car.
