Just thought I'll share another idea that these brilliant polish guys are doing.

Now I think he has put the 8p3 bits into the housing of the 8p1 lights.

that is cool. i want to have a go at that. :think:
 
Thats crazy probably look bit better on a single grill s line or s3 8p2
 
Looks a bit odd to me. Fair play for making it work though.
 
That is awesome! I would pay very good money for some help doing this on an 8P2!
 
Definintely doesn't look right in the twin grill car, might look passable in a big single grill car though. But the headlights on the new A3 are perhaps one of the least appealing parts of the car, the DRLs, even when off, dominate the headlight. The A4/5 design is much nicer.

Have to agree, looks a bit too busy on the front of an 8P1. Would look good on an 8P2 S Line though, I reckon.

These Polish lads certainly know a thing or two.
 
just to point out the bottom of the beam appears to be obstructed by the headlight, wonder how it would fare come mot time
 
SSSSHHHH!!!! Keep it on the down low guys, otherwise - in addition to the sat navs - they'll start ripping out your 8P3 headlights and shipping them over to the other side of The Wall...:crying:
 
Have to agree with PH1L , great it can be done but dipped beam is obstructed therefore not for my car, sadly :(
 
Germans have done it better !!!! I know it wont appeal to us all but i think these B8 lights look better.
These pics are from worthersee 2010

Anybody ever managed to retrofit these to an 8P2 s3... without obviously doing the full facelift?

Looking for the 8P3 oem look....
