Build Thread: Patrick's A3 8P in Black

Black · Apr 26, 2013

Hi everyone, new to this forum

I bought a Audi A3 e (1.9 tdi)

When I got it, it looked like this:

Than managed to get some new alloys, I was debating on Rotiforms or 3SDM's:

I didn't like the standard seats, managed to get a bargain :

Finally lowering, front wheels are going for refurb on Monday Atomic wheels:

When Waxed and polished I will add some more photos maybe some photoshoot, need to change tyres probably 205/40/18r as running 8,5 all around, also looking at S-line front bumper

Any comments welcome

Regards

Patrick

Hi, Today I went to get my alloys refurbed unfortunately that's what Atomic wheels guy's spotted.

Refurb plus welding £180+, £177 new one so that's a new one then.
I'm thinking about running 9,5 j at the back would ET40 be suitable on 225/40/18r tyre ?
atm I'm running ET42 on 8,5 j all around.

Thanks

Today I went to TPS and bought some MY11 rear lights, front fog lights, surrounds, connectors etc

Unfortunately it was raining, but I though I can manage that

Half way through:

My fav

Booked in for body shop on Monday (front S-line bumper and some minor scratches)

Can't wait

Looks great mate. MY11's really update the rear end, one of my favourite mods I've done on mine!

Looking forward to seeing the S Line bumper on :thumbsup:

looks good, the s line bumper will make a big difference then you'd need to change the tailpipe for exhaust or new backbox.
