It adds fuel and doesn't wait for the cars short term trim to kick in meaning it is smoother with the s-tronic and I can plug my laptop in and mess with it lol
There isn't really anything between them performance wise other than launch control is very aggressive

Never mind about that mate where's yer pikey stickers??!! lol
Just got my car back from the Detailers and was about to do them....now it's ******' raining....good old Scottish Summer
Why...........?
Went to see my detailer last week about marks on the bonnet from unfiltered tap water
He wiped it over with IPA cause the CQUARTZ say their Ceramic is supposed to be resilient to any chemicals...and it had stripped it off (note to self not to use IPA)
All sorted now

Lovely Rob
Looks like you've got similar weather to down here mate, been sunny but now a bit overcast. I love Daytona on a bright cloudy day the paintwork takes on a almost liquid metal look............sweeeet!!
Has anyone seen what methods are used to remove those rear Quarter Glass Panels anywhere?...along with the chrome trim

It is mate very overcast but stayed dry for me at least I managed to do what I wanted on it. New discs can't come some enough rust is coming through again on the hubs which is annoying.
Still loving Daytona it's very difficult to capture its depth on days like today and only fellow Team members will appreciate it LoL.

is it not a case of opening the door, and peeling the trim away, then working around the window itself?
Im tempted to get the Quattro stickers now. Damn it.

Watch out Rob! SW14NY'S got an eye on your glass...Has anyone seen what methods are used to remove those rear Quarter Glass Panels anywhere?...along with the chrome trim
Routed the cable via the door seal and under the rear seat mat into the rear 12v socket so still leaves the front socket free if needed.
HINT: Used a bicycle tyre lever as the tool to push and hide cable between trim and window
Image quality looks pretty good for a £28 (reduced from £90) piece of kit, will give it go on the road tomorrow

Chrome trim will clip into the rubber encapsulation around the glass and quite possibly has 3M double sided tape on it too.
As for the glass that's bonded in with a PU adhesive - it'll need to be cut out using a special tool like a mini circular saw or a cheese wire it's quite specialist so prob best having it done by Autoglass or similar.

Totally agree mate, it's tough to capture well on camera but a phenomenal colour
Not sure?...can't find anything online....I'm probably going to go and see an Authorised Audi Repairer to swap the glass over tbh as I'm not wanting to damage anything
LoL !! ..... decisions decisions solid or outline ?????

outline! . . . in pink?
a matte black or a deep anthracite would be good, so it has a subtle contrast to panther black!

Ah gotcha - sounds good - looking to match your S3 grille badge as well then LoL ;o)
Hold on, will ask him upstairs to filter and deionise the rain water before he decides to p*** on my parade again!!!!!
i did ignore the S3 today...By playing in the Ferrari.
i saw my first F40 when i was about 17, on the motorway, in the middle lane, to its left was an Audi R8 and to the right was a lambo. surrounded by range rovers with camera men hanging out the back of them.
that day, i knew i had to get myself an F40, no matter what!
10 years later, i have on.
