​Looking very good. :) x
 
Nice love it, did you do the conversion yourself? You need the wing mirrors or mot is a no go.
 
you got your seats in yet Mark? :sign_pics:
 
If thou wilt meter exterior mirrors with Flashes, engines or exchanges of glasses with wiring port complecta, including locks.

Or more so easy and cheap alloy wire harness inside the car, it passes right next to the grommets at the door :)

I did it a little time in the car of a friend of mine.
 
Looks really nice mate, great work, although i'm not a massive fan of the black rings on the front - just looks dirty :O!
 
Good work mate. Get some pics up with the helios on..
 
cheers for the feedback guys yea did the work myself with the help of some hardworking mates lol. wasnt too bad of a job although did have to make some new brackets for the wings as they fit totally different to the original ones and obviously have the drl,s programmed in on vagcom,i have tweaked the wings a little since these pics as i wasnt happy with the gaps and have also just put 19inch phaeton helios,s on so will upload some new pics this weekend.with regards to the grill badge been painted im not a massive fan myself but this was already done and havent got round to buyin a new one yet.
 
I see this car all the time driving around Bradford. It looks great :icon_thumright:
 
cheers bud, cant make your profile pic bigger to see if i know your car but yea im usually out and about in bradford.
 
Looks fantastic mate wot the rough cost of facelift as I'm thinking about doing it to my s3.
 
To be honest most of the parts are off of my brothers car which was written off in a rear end smash so couldn't really give you a true figure as all I had to source was the front bumper,grill and headlights although to buy the wings along with slam panel,bumper bar and a few other parts ud need I'd say roughly 2k you could do the work yourself as its fairly straight forward apart from having to make new wing brackets as they fit in a different place and also code the drl,s in on Vagcom.
 
Hi i have a 57 plate S3 and wanted to fit the led lights is it a straight fit or do you have to change panels and wiring of the car. also were did you get the lights from.

Thanks

yes mate changed the hinges aswell there's a few little bits and bats you wouldn't think would be different but are. Well worth it though.
 
how long did it take to do the change? great job btw
 
Not as yet but i bought Ian's grill instead oops lol. Will have some ready for ultimate dubs I would've thought. U got any new plans at the mo?
 
After the front splitter to match but struggling to find someone who can get it done in a decent timescale.
 
No mate the liners are the same,good job really as I forgot to get the newer ones.
 
my liners havent been changed and there absolutley fine.
 
fingers crossed then:)

one more thing, the bonnet hook, this is needs to be changed as well?? i did hope to get one with the bonnet but the tight seller took it off.
