[crazychris]

hi i have jsut bought a 1.8t sport but am after changing a few things im wanting to put s3 bumpers on and will i need side skirts to make it look right also if i put 18" alloys on will it need lowering so it doesnt look like a flamin 4x4, also if it does will s3 springs lower it as i am wanting better handling but i dont want to loose the ride comfort any suggestions guys n girls

many thanks chris

skirts arent a must, ive got s3 front and rear bumpers on mine and it looks good, it wont look high with 18's it will look alright - even better with 30mm lowering springs, dont bother getting s3 springs you'll be wasting your money

o right wicked, i dont wanna ruin the car i love it so i thought a nice s3 kit leave the 1.8t badges on though, will 18s just have the same arch clearance it has now also what size tyres should i run, and how come id be wasting money will a descent set of springs do the job or do i need the full shebang
