Bustling Friday - Car plans for weekend?

[KudoWarrior]

I'm on here most days, either messaging or lurking, but today I've noticed quite a few posters in the B8 area;
Weekend mode already on for many I guess!

Just thought I'd start a thread to see what mods/changes/additions etc people were making on their cars this fine weekend?

I'll start off with my....thorough vacuum, wash, scrub, dry, polish, polish again and general all round clean of my car. Followed by NOT parking under any trees.
Also adding some s-line heat resistant stickers to my newly painted calipers.

What about you?

sounds productive
due to funds I am going to drive on a very loud seized caliper and ripped control arm bushing and do no mods.. music up as ignorance is bliss! and caliper is being sorted wednesday any way

Wish my STVBEK splitter would paint and fit itself for free haha

 

[opelfruit]

I'll be going to work for the next 2 days......


Thanks for bringing that up.

It's going to be raining here all weekend.

hahaha I love listening to music but I also just love listening to the way the car sounds, also allows me to see if anything is up.
Splitter should be a fun job to do, get your man to help!

That sucks! But that just means you'll have time off at some point when I'm working

It's going to be raining here all weekend.

It's times like that which make me think about getting a car cover or wish I had a garage! The rain is so "hard".

How about a nice wax or sealant instead of the second round of polishing? Lock in the goodness.

My bad, I meant to say "Gloss protection" for the second round of polishing. For basically what you said above

Cheers for the link. Didn't even notice that section. Tunnel vision with the B8 area!

More work = more money for mods

At least I'm on 12 hour day shifts at the moment, makes me feel less hard done to :-D

I only have un-car plans this wekeend.

Unless driving to Sussex to visit family on Sunday counts. No, didn't think so.

 

[Point_Audi]

Not much planned for the car this weekend, as likewise the weather isnt great! .. So maybe some car related shopping online!

 

[GjrBartlett]

Nothing much planned for the car other than a road trip from Lincolnshire to the Capital for the Virgin Money London Marathon this weekend!

[andyam]

Nice. Good luck buddy!

Yea, the weather is quite crappy this weekend. If you can find a dry couple of hours then the wax and clean will laugh at the rain droplets on the car

Having my rears tinted, steady stream of modding for the next few months starts today.

Nice nice. I've got a few rounds of works to do across the next year. Need to keep telling myself that I need to stagnate then so it isn't too much in one go.

For the pic, just copy the url of the alloys and then click on the little image in the post area and it will let you paste the url.

I love these wheels.

@KudoWarrior - Ordered March 18 & have BW19, so far. Just wanted to check if there's been any progress since I last hassled Audi CS

Sweet Car!

 

[scotty76]

@KudoWarrior did you get the car washed and sealed up?

The sand rain has been here so the car's covered in it. More rain due so just going to leave it for now.

 

[Bulldog]

Trial fitted my spacers fitted 12mm on the front just need to order some 15mm for the rear now.

 

[KudoWarrior]

I love these wheels.

I only waited a week and a half for the dealership to deliver mine and it felt like an eternity; I feel for you!

I did indeed, it was a long 2 hours but to be honest I REALLY enjoyed it. That may change after I do it for the 10th time but still, was quite nice to get it looking spotless (did get some white spots from one of the products but I think I figured out why for next time).
Water and rain just stream off

 

[Fctaff]

No but they are being ordered, concave for me.
