Oh wow it's an RS3!
There's me thinking it's just an S3....
Nice though

LOL, yeah badge was already on rear so I refuse to take any blame.
By the way as on this subject, was there such thing as an RS3?? Haven't looked it up just know of RS2 & RS4 hehe

There's a new RS3. It's a 2.5l TFSI and it goes like a rocket. But Audi insist on only doing a sport back (5 door) version, which sucks coz most S3 (8L) owners would love to see and own a 3 door.
There was never officially an RS3 in the 8L model. But there have been many S3 "RS" upgraded. One company put a 2.5l turbo in an 8L S3 plus other mods. The results was ballistic!

and some european guy has aesthetically modified his 8P S3 (3 door) to match the new RS3. But only tweaked the engine a tad. He still badged it as an RS3...

That looks nice apart from the RS3 badge (please lose it, "S3" is enough of a car to warrant respect) and what looks like an 8 ball gearknob...?

S3`s look nice and chunky in the deep colours like that.

Love the colour and wheels.

Like the colour of your wheels what happened to the centre caps?

Fantastic looking wheels.

Looks very nice!

Lose the RS3 badge and get the centre caps coloured coded and it will be perfect.

Thanks for comments guys much appreciated. As I said RS3 badge was already there (I wouldn't have put it on myself) & personally I don't mind it as the S3 is a rare car anyway so most peeps don't really know much about them plus didn't want to pick it off & maybe damage paint. The gearknob is standard must just look like an 8 ball in pick at that angle lol. As for wheels yes maybe the centre caps should be greyed as well, not sure why previous owner didn't. I sort of thought the silver ring inside didn't look bad aganist the silver mirrors but agree think they need doing now.

Cheers Steve

The blue cone filter is by Jetex and iv not had any problems yet but it does sound good had a k&n panel filter before and just fancied a change!

Oh what colour did you choose for your wheels was it just the same as what the door blades are and the other grey bits on the bodywork?
