That's the tape I used, did you use it in a single layer? I might have over-egged it by going double.

so I can work out, at least 4 people here have purchased a new RS3 8Y (probably over priced) as a stop gap "filler" car until their new RS3 8Y order arrives..... #smh#
Yeah just one layer. Next time I'm near the car I'll grab a similar pic to yours to show you.
Is that with spacers? I can't keep track of who has done what to their cars. Hahaha.
Haha, yes it is mate. 12.5mm on the front and 15mm on the rear. Standard suspension.
Excellent, I think it's a good fit at those sizes. An inch or so lower would help in the future too I imagine.
Definitely toying with that ideaExcellent, I think it's a good fit at those sizes. An inch or so lower would help in the future too I imagine.
I wouldn't want to go quite as low as Billy did on his, but something like the Eibach Sportline (I think those ones are the lesser drop?) would be ideal. It's what I did on my S4 and it gave the same gap all the way around the tyre to the arch so looked how I wanted it to. Plus my driveway slopes down off the road so I could bottom out coming over the crest if it's too low. LolDefinitely toying with that idea
Time for a bit more tin foil....
Need to take me car to some of my old photo haunts, really want to recreate this one I took in the Beacons a few years back. Last full day of ownership and the sunset didn't disappoint (apologies for besmerching the RS3 forum with Jap).

Here you go, took the excuse to get away from my desk and out in the sun
e: just realised they're not as close-up as the one you took, let me know if they're any use!

Nicely done. Was offered £8k to buy my order back in January and I turned it down - I’m not sure he was mental for offering that or I am for not taking it!!!
How would you know if they just nicked your order and put a new one on for you!?Nicely done. Was offered £8k to buy my order back in January and I turned it down - I’m not sure he was mental for offering that or I am for not taking it!!!
I've been wondering if this is what's happening to us with the constant "next month" reply I've been getting.
Haha, sorry.I wasn’t offered it by Audi….
I read "Buy my order back" - not "Buy my order" "Back in Jan".
Haha, sorry.

Haha yeah I can see how you read it that way now. Took my car in today for a service and dealer said they wished I hadn’t cancelled my second order as they can’t get their demo until July but mine would have been in sooner!
I wish I had kept it too as i would most certainly have sold that one on
lol

Glad I’m not the only one with this problem.
i had to remove the foam but at the back as it caused the plate to bend and ultimately loosen the foam pads.
i need to replace the same on the front but will lower the plate to the flat part of the grill.
I’ve just order 3m strips from eBay. Very good so far

Looks so much better with the spacers over stock.

Do spacers make a difference on the insurance premium.
Never had them on a car but the pic does look good
What are the downsides to them?
When I had them for a while on my 8V the insurance didn’t charge extra but they are classed as a mod
Downsides, you risk road rash to the lower bodywork as more tyre tread is exposed so more stones etc will be flick into the car.
I also found on the 8V it made any imbalance in the wheel a lot more noticeable as the further you push the wheel out the more it exaggerates things.

Can you please give me a link to those RS buttons on the wheel?
Was additional coding required?
Thanks
