its looking very nice Ads. the drop is perfect.
all you need to do now is the 8P3 front conversion lol!
Looks sweet Ads, the wheels look good against silver paintwork... spot on
Very nice mate - great write up and inspiration.
Youve just spent loads of money to do something similar!
Looks much better now
Looks great, very in east london are you, im in manor park.
I'm not too far from you mate, going out towards chingford.
My mate lives they, im always in the area, he lives near charlie brown roundabout, bout 5mins drive.
Car looks great
High 5 for the Fat 5s!
much awaited pictures!! looks awesome man, love the rims ads!
And definitely get the tints and spacers for rear. I was wondering also, since you have kept the grille chrome, why not have chrome surrounds for fog lights like the newer a3s? (if possible)

LOL!!
oh and why does it rub? I thought springs were meant to be pretty rigid? what if you have people in the back?
Looks good fella Bet your pleased with it!
Also like the wheels as well :thumbsup:
Nice one Ash!
Yeah, i'm satisfied with it now.
I saw my nemesis the other day. He's got a nice clean standard 06 silver s-line and whenever he used to see my car in its Sport form he would look it up and down in a way that said "my car looks better than yours!"
I pulled up next him at the weekend and he looked and then looked away keeping his eyes forward until the lights turned green.
haha i bet he wasnt too pleased! You got anything else planned?
Looks great. Transformed!
Ads, love the wheels. Car is looking ace.
:icon_thumright:
Thanks Sandra.
Kerbs scare the hell out of me now though!
Looks good man. Get that bolt taken out at the back. I removed mine and Im slammed and it never catches anything
That said Im gonna be running a more stretched 215/40 tyre soon and some spacers ... 'if you aint rubbin' blah blah, hehe.
hi mate,
i dont know how i kept missing this thread but i found it now.
the car looks sweet... and i have to say the choice in the alloys are perfect! ride height looks sweet!
damn you now i feel like changing alloys and lowering it
'ello Ash. Thanks mate.
I've got three words to say to you.... LOWER LOWER LOWER!!
In fact, I saw a black Sport sportback like yours yesterday. It was totally standard but had obviously been lowered. It was pretty much the same height as mine so I'm guessing he must've dropped it by about 35mm below Sport.
Made the car look SO much better, even though it was still on the original 17" Sport alloys.
I think on the longer body of the Sportback lowering makes even more of a difference than on a 3dr. Looked sweet.
Ads this looks great! height looks perfect on the eibachs im going to defo lower mine next year (No point yet as winter is fast approaching)
Loving the wheels aswell!

hey ads i love the Sig mate... you could even make a number plate like that.. A3 SID
lol
the plate was actually really quick! as i live close to the DVLA office in Sidcup i wasnt stuck to go and sort out the transfer. i had the plates on the car about a week from buying the reg online from the DVLA website and i got the V5C through about 3 weeks after the transfer. i also have 'show plates' on mine so i didnt need the original certificate when ordering the actual metal pressed plates so i did that as soon as i confirmed the purchase of the reg.
i am hoping to make it, but i really want that ugly dent in my car sorted and i have had some 'good news' last week where its finally about to be sorted but no timeline as to when
also have my oil service, MOT and Tax all due in a couple weeks so not the best of times for my poor car...
on a plus note i did quite a bit of work on the car and tidied up all the wiring from my installs and also fitted a rear view camera to my screen! its such a cool gadget to have... makes me smile every time i hit reverse.
