Cheers fella as requested some quick photos from a few weeks ago

i was going to say the same it seems that benskin doesn't like the rear

Lol i dont like the rear haha! I think its boring only a 2009 Black Edition/S-line rear bumper.

Got a noobie question though..how you get your headlights darkened?

Thanks Daws, as Fran said Lamin-X i got mine off ebay usa

Ok well was hoping to update this thread with a few mods i've been working on but its not gone to plan so more delays and will have to wait as cash is tight. Just a few random photos from march to present.
Forgot to say sold the S3 brakes to a member on here as im currently not working and they wont be going on any time soon thought it was just cash laying around and i can always grab another set once i'm working.

My A3 & a standard S-line. Want to get a photo next to another SE so i can see the difference.

Car now running some standard A3 SE alloys till next week cant wait to put 18s back on driving this low an on 16s is MAJOR Had to raise the front even more as it was catching the bumps.

Yes Rich ahh things are alright could be better lol 2011 been a bad year for me so far haha. I've not done much really, i've started two exterior mods but they wont be finished till im working again. Your car looking really good mate, lowered and she a winner
Main mods to come will be new set of wheels but in 19s, new front grill and new suspension

Hiya mate, as you know i plan to do something similar with the black look. Came across some smoked indicator lights on the web the other day, have you thought of putting them?

Yeah thought about them just not got around to buying a set yet. If you get a set fella send me a photo once you fitted them

 

[Orts]

Theyre not on my radar just yet. Got the grill, just need to buy new plates and lamin-x first before putting it all together. Im pretty sure the smoked indi's were £20 from an aftermarket site, defo gonna give them a bash though!

 

[~RS~]

Thanks for the props on me car... Mucho gracias Sorry to hear about your bad start to the year, hope the 2nd half is kinder to you mate.
What grill you putting on the car then? An RS style one? I seen you are selling your coilovers on ed38. You have better coils or gone back to standard?

 

[Ash B]
