Tidy motor Fran, where d u get the carbon wrap? Any left lol

Edit just read the post gonna check the link lol
 
yeah have a look on ebay its really cheap for the effect it gives to be fair and very easy to use/do the hardest bit was doing the ashtray as it has some awkward curves in it
 
Looks Awsome mate, love the effort and detail you have put in.

Very inspiring mate

yeah that would be weird wouldn't it lmao , well on the rear she is down about 3/4 and on the front she is all the way down but im thinking it might be riding on the bumpstops as it wont go any lower it just doesnt seam low enough to me if it is as low as it goes then im disapointed with the drop , i will try and cut the bumpstops down a bit to see if that makes any difference
 
got a few new pics with my wheels painted in the new colour and the cars stance sorted now

Looks good mate, front defo looks a bit lower. Maybe space the rears a little to get them a bit more flush?

You got the same part leather/ alcantara interior as me dude, I actually prefer it to full leather myself, dont slide around as much and warmer in the winter

Lowering has moved down the list for me mate. First I've gotta get two new tyres, then a cambelt and waterpump change, and then a fridge freezer. Lol.
Will be done before the year is out though :yes:
 
Looks good fella :happy: Spacers would finish the stance nicely.
Let me know if your still on tomorrow will only be around the corner from your work in g town

Can't you get it done by Audi under their 'fixed price servicing' offer??
Or doesn't that cover your car and location??

dont think my car would be covered because of the mileage plus not full a.s.h so am ******** lol

I don't think mileage or past service history matters mate. On their website all it says is that your car has to be more than 3 years old and a 2.0L or less to qualify.
£399.

Give 'em a call maybe.

ah right i get you mate maybe will have to give them a try then to see what they say , cardiff audi are usually ok
 
Looks better, could still go lower and rears need spacing!

I just paid £320 for my cambelt change, that included water pump, rollers/tensioners and anti freeze.

All genuine parts too. :)
