Some very nice cars there mate, nice to see a few rocking the 0.01's. I'm developing a real soft spot for the mk2 gti's. Them clouds in the last pic look a bit moody!

New mods on my car.

Built in a A4 B7 sline-valance in my original sline-valance, and also rebuilt the exhaust.
The first of it kind?

Before paint:

After paint with 4 coats of Plastidip:

Next is adding 3" exhaust-tips with a "diesel-bend".

[Zak0123]

Hahaha I know mate, would look so good! Love how yours sits, not too sure about how low I can go on springs with the standard setup without replacing the whole lot (still a newbie!)

Does any one know if this front splitter is oem or is it something like this:

AUDI A3 8P (2005-2008) 3 & 5 DOOR - S3 FRONT BUMPER SPOILER 3 DOOR AND SPORTBACK | eBay

Also does anyone know how this attaches, is it bonded onto the existing bumper or screwed in?

Thanks in advance

It is the Votex lip for standard sport bumper. It is a OEM part. ecstuning.com has them in stock but shipping would be a bit.
Not sure on fitment, I know the Votex rear spoiler is just bonded on so it is probably the same.

The ebay link you posted is someone making fibreglass versions of the OEM part in Poland i think.

This supplier in the UK does the Votex rear valance so might be able to do the front lip?

Mate, she looks great.
In my opinion, those wheels suit the 8P perfectly, such a fantastic OEM look.
ALthough I have upgraded to the S3 now, I still really miss my old A3 with OEM RS6 style wheels. I still see it on the street from time to time and stare.

Here's my 2010 s-tronic sportback, she's totally standard at the moment (apart from the dog guard). Got plans for some BBS CK's and upgraded brakes and maybe stage 1 Revo.

I know what you mean, i still can't believe i'm an audi owner, i looked at 10 year old VW and got fed up with finding high milage ones and ones with sketchy history and bought this, it's an ex boots company car and is highly spec'd apart from heated seats!
