Thanks I tried some tint film on them but it was cheap stuff and looked grey. Don't fancy paying the price for lamin x just for indicators..
Here's the front

Get some smoked side repeaters of eBay like £11 I think I have some do the job.

The car is lowered around 4.5cm roundabout.

I'm running the same hight all year. It's adjustable but i have a Cupra-lip that takes away most of the snow. No problem.
Summer-wheels are 19" yes.

The Dynavin D95 has almost everything but not DAB.
Soon i will test the new D99 w/Android (i'm selling these units in Norway) and will post more pictures when the test is done.
The Android has still a couple of "bugs" but i hope there will come an update for the software soon.
But i'm very satisfied with the D95 for now. Looks like it was original for my car.


And a pic of the PlastiDip coated grill:

Car is looking good mate! how do you find the 17s with that it being low? I have the same alloys and didnt want to lower it until i get the 19s on.

also i see you have some eyebrows on your headlights.

Thanks!

The diameter 17s vs 19s is almost the same so its not a problem 17s has 225/45 and 19s got 225/35.

Got some eyebrows but i will remove them before the summer comes. Had them for 8months now, tired of them aready.

so you dont find that you are scraping things like pavements on the 17s while the car is dropped? i have the same on my 17s (225/45) but i find that i already touch on some high pavements with the cupra splitter

Lewy man, that is perfection! I've probably asked this before, but what size are the rims and what tyre size are you running? Drop etc?

Thanks

Just one from a friend's gtg.

I recently tinted the tail lights with the lightest shade of lamin-x tint, for that cherry red look.

OOoooo i like the look of that! i have been thinking of doing this on the newer LED rear lights to see if it looks any better!

Looks good, was it hard to tint them? Quite a curve on the rear lights

My S3 8P.

Nice, new alloys looking mean with the black s3. Rs3 grille would look really mean and nice if you like that stealth look.

 

[RobRS]

Just a few shots of my recently acquired S3… another Jaffa!

I’m about to have the roofs centre wrapped in gloss blacktogether with the rear spoiler, including the front & rear lower valances
(currently silvery grey) Ifeel that’ll finish the car off nicely!
What’s your thoughts??

Cheers,

 

[S.]

i think it's better without roof wrap. just do front and back lower valance and maybe wing mirrors.

 

[pinterovski]

Wrap the roof without spoiler or nothing.
Do the wheels graphite gray and also remove the front black grill with standard one!
My opinion,The black optics do not suit on orange s3 cuz it makes the car dead!
Here is mine and i'm 99% sure that the wheels are gonna be graphite grey like the front and rear valance very soon!

 

[willowsdad]

My 3.2 Quattro sport after a quick wash and a coat of jetseal. Just trying to build up a few coats before the hosepipe ban starts.

.
Ive had it 8 months now, and she's still standard. I've got plans but not the cash. So keeping her clean and shiny will have to do for now.

Yes the proper name is an Audi RS3, he hasn't fitted that grille.

 

[supanova]

ah sorry, I was being thick wasnt I? looks amazing!!

 

[MartayMcFly]

If you want an RS3 grill you'll have to do another facelift to 8P3, or get an RS4/6 grill and chop it to fit your grill surround. Involves plastic welding, and doesn't sound easy. There are also aftermarket ones, but the honeycomb is usually smaller, and doesn't quite look right.

my missus A3 1.8T - just cleaned and polished. My s2000 in the background is even shinier!!

Thanks for the tip!

I think next projekct for my car is 3" catback system. Evidently it is 2,5" original from cat on S3.
