Window Tints went on yesterday....all washed for your pleasure...

[Tiffy]

Had the car a week now and have done the following-
Detailed, Clayed and machine polished.
Window tints done, Dark rears and VERY light fronts so its not too much of a contrast.
Interior lights upgarded to white LED's
Rear number plate lights upgraded to White LED's
OEM Centre Armrest ordered.....Gotta have one of them.
Ambient light module for front orded from Dealers....Hopefully get time to fit this week.
B5 Perch plates to be ordered tomorrow to get the front down slightly.....its annoying me, lol

 

[jdp1962]

Nice looking car.

 

[Steve220]

get some tire gel on them. Where did you get the LED's from? tempted to do it, but still in 2 minds

 

[Tiffy]

I tyre gelled it after taking the pics....... Schoolboy error...lol

 

[Tiffy]

I got the rear Number plate LED's from E-Bay...but i got the complete new units with the 18LED's in it as i tried the cheaper bulbs but they through up the error on the dash, these ones are fine and look great at night.

Did the interior ones from E-Bay aswell, looks LOADS better than the neasty looking yellow light inside....

 

[southylad]

looks sweet mate i like the stealth look myself the led int lights are good eh i did mine a while back

 

[Macdoon]

Car looks awesome fella, top marks. Do you have a link to the number plate led's

 

[Paul B7]

Very smart car, don't ever think of changing them wheels as they help make the car look great !

Very nice mate. Where and how much did the tints cost buddy, you're not far from me.

 

[ben.w93]

Looking good, need to do the tints on mine and sort the wheels out.

 

[Macdoon]

T8ups on here does complete interior light packs for our cars, they are excellent crisp white

 

[Mr-C]

Can I ask what you paid for the tinting job, I could really do with my Avant doing

 

[A4Chad]

Looks really good mate, thanks for the lighting links too.. great stuff.

 

[A4_MaJiK]

Nice looking car mate. May I ask what grade of tint you have up front?

 

[bizzab7]

if anyone in scotland want their tints done go to mr tints in glasgow.£100 for any car and they do an excellent job.booked mine in for next week but used them for my old car and would highly recommend

 

[Tiffy]

Cheers Guys....A guy that has always done my tints did it for me, cost £200 for the lot. There are cheaper places about but he is VERY good and uses good quality film, not cheap nasty stuff that discolors over time.

Rears are 25% and the fronts are 40% i think......Its a very good contrast without being too dark and tacky.

 

[Steve220]

I used Moray Tints, best in our area. All done for £180

 

[razza1]

Me likey

 

[dubdemand]

Nice! You could moon light at weekends doing the odd funeral service lol

Have you considered the B5 spring perch mod to bring the front down slightly?

 

[RobMorris]

Looks good mate, would look even better with an inch out of the ride height!

 

[Tiffy]

The B5 perch mod has been ordered.... Just need to find a set of springs that don't lower it too much, any suggestions???.....

I'm going with B5 perches and the Eibach 30mm kit. Only drops it 10mm on S-Line suspension.

 

[Tiffy]

Oh, that could be exactly what I want... Where's the best place to get them

 

[A4_MaJiK]

Get in touch with Damian (he's on this forum) from DPM Performance. Thats who I'll be going through anyway, he has sorted me out in the past when I got coilovers for my Mk4 Golf. Service is second to none.

Very tidy car mate, it looks like the front bumper needs a little adjustment though

Can you post some pics when you get these installed mate. I have done the perches but an extra 10mm all round would look cool.

cheers

Cheers mate......I have looked at the front bumper and thought it was a tiny bit low at the top of the grill....I wonder how hard they are to adjust??

 

[matthew999]

I followed these two threads mate, i always thought it was a bumper off job, but i have read conflicting posts, some say you can adjust with bumper on however this didnt work for me.


DIY: Front Bumper Removal
DIY: Bumper/Hood Gap Adjustment (after bumper removal)

Hi Tiffy, I found this link which leads over to this guide, hope that helps with the bumper adjustment.

 

[Tiffy]

Cheers You Two.......Very Helpful....
