Craig I've been in the painting game for a while now and just to let you know for next time you are gonna have to take that hood down to bare metal for it to not keep reacting when you got to repaint it. Tbh I would just wrap it with a gloss black wrap and call it a day.

@robsdeviceunknown Год назад

Yeah Wrapping it, good idea. But probably more expensive than painting isnt it?

@davidaidan6999 Год назад

@@robsdeviceunknowndepends how often you want to have to paint it, good bit of wrap done by yourself will only cost $200 at max

@WilC379 Год назад

Sure, but if the paint is peeling you would still see the edges of the peeling paint in the wrap. Also the wrap is temporary and the paint is not, or at least it shouldn't be. For my personal car I wouldn't mind going that route, but for a car that you're trying to sell to someone putting a wrap on it isn't really a solution.

@beerwrenchgarage Год назад

Craig, two points... 1.) there is no way the S6 is 3200 lbs unless you found a way to do 1300 lbs of weight reduction - and judging from what looks to be a complete interior, I would say no. 2.) the scratches on the 06 S4's hood are the least of your worries. The reason you got that car for what you did is that it will need its timing chains and tensioners serviced and that is an engine out job. If you hear a metallic rattle at start up, then that is the engine telling you its time to address the chains and tensioners. In all reality, you would've lost less money if you set $2500 on fire at the beginning of the auction.

@mongo64071 Год назад

Yes, we call them boots in Australia, and I do think this term came from Britain originally. Love that 3000MHz battery though 😆 I reckon the bonnet clear over the earlier repairs was only single pack that is why it was not very durable in the sun. Sorry to tell you, the hood has to be rubbed back with 400 wet and repainted. It will improve the whole package for auction, don't leave it like that.

@KillaSupra Год назад

I am a small dealer, much smaller than you Craig so maybe Im not the one who should be giving advice. But personally, I dont understand why you invest all this time into cosmetic improvements before a cars major issues are solved. If a car is misfiring, that should be the priority to fix. If its not cost effective to fix that, then it makes no sense to put several days of labour into exterior. If the car is pretty much mechanically totalled and is being sent to auction, having the headlight haze fixed isnt going to really improve how much you get. An audi with major engine issues at auction is going to get very little regardless of exterior condition. I always fix the “unknowns” before I touch anything else. You know doing the body work and paint wont cause issues, so why worry about it first? I always personally like to tackle the most problematic areas first that can make or break a flip

I sold my 04 B6 S4 with 136k for $5500 with some minor issues. Same car just was a sedan with a sunroof. Great cars, great power & sound with the right exhaust. Minus the timing chains & guides that go out & oil burning😂 I miss my S4 Sedan. The 6sp manual trans in them is pretty solid imo.

@muffindell Год назад

All VAG cars have a paper label in the boot attached to the floor which shows the Paint code and options fitted (in code form), you'll also find the same label at the front of the service book pack. Remember, you never fail, you just gain experience for the next time. The roof could well have been just a dead fuse. First time watching you, loved the real life content, keep up the learning and look forward to the next video

@judahnanas9772 Год назад

Don't want to be rude Craig but sometimes you are your own nightmare... why didn't you focus on fixing the roof and other mecanical issues first? Cause maybe there no point of "investing" on the exterior and/or cleaning if your about to make a loss on that car... priority my friend, priority!

@robertsomerville320 Год назад

Hey Craig, you have amazing content and I love your videos. You're not a loser, these cars are mechanical nightmares and a lot of shops won't even work on them. You did what you thought was right, and did what you could on a budget. Why not take this car to Audi and see what the repair cost is and what is involved. If it's way to expensive best to stop spending money on it any further, sell it off to a European parts dismantler. If it's fixable, take it to Macco for a quick and dirty panel repair and paint on the panels that need it, that would at least get it close to looking good. Keep up the great content!

@jeffomalley6015 Год назад

That paint you made deff no way will match that stock color. Especially once it's outside in the light.

@baitse7676 Год назад

If you had sprayed a sealer on the hood before color, you could probably hide up to 600 grit sanding scratches, but not those tiger claws that look like 36 grit. When you prepsol the panels, should definitely feel that.

Hi Craig, first of all, I really like this Ferrari flip serie. One thing I keep wondering about is why you don't simply take the headlights out before clearing them up. It will prevent damage on the paint of the car and also makes it easier to get into the corners and edges of the headlight. Seems to me that's more easy than taping up the sides and also gives a better end result. In terms of time it shouldn't make much of a difference with most cars.

As a reseller, I would have either done 1 of 2 things. If i could do all the work it needed myself. I would do that. If not, I would part it out. I guarantee I could sell the parts for far more than 2500 but Audi parts would be a slow sale, may take upwards of 2 years to see ROI.

VW (Audi) can be so cool looking and all the bells and whistles. Then you check repair cost on average (upwards of $6k if you get into any part of the engine) then the cool factor really wears off quick. I totally would love a S3 or S4, but do not want to give my money to the Audi Stealership in our area. Trust me they already have a nice looking waiting room. Just remember if the waiting room is swanky, then you a paying to sit there with every minute they working on your car. Seriously Audi S6, 3200 lbs. Maybe with no seats and carbon fiber all around. An Audi S6 is more in the 4400 lbs (Wet), which doesn't seem like a lot but 1,200 lbs. makes a huge difference when talking power to weight ratio. Luckily for the S6 you have a 450HP Twin Turbo 4.0 liter V8 mated to a Quatro AWD system. Good for solid 0-60 in 4 seconds flat and the 1/4 mile flies by a 12.5 second. Great video, keep up the good work!!!
