Ive been a member on here for 14 months, tend to be a browser more than a poster, having gained a lot of useful info! I havent really posted any pictures of my car yet so thought Id do a write up of what Ive done up until now
Picked the car up in Dec 2009 looking like this
After browsing the forum and seeing this http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/new-a3-s3-sportback-8p-chassis/52430-ashtray-converted-into-itray.html I decided that the iTray was going to be the first mod I did.
Funnily enough, after seeing pictures of cars on here with a black optics grill I soon followed the trend, and added UK aluminium pressed plates and LED side lights to smarten it up a bit
Then I managed to get sucked into a group buy and ended up with a Bluefin, thankfully I wasnt disappointed! The new map made a big improvement and made the car feel much more lively.
Having wanted cruise control when I bought the car I finally got round to fitting it in spring 2010, just before my trip around Europe, a worthy investment it was too!
Then in the summer of 2010 I was introduced to Lamin-X, shortly after it appeared on my car
Then I decided it was time to tidy up the rear end a bit, fitted an S-Line/S3 spoiler and a Polo 9N rear wiper arm and blade to give me this
I was fed up of the cigarette lighter so swapped it for the 12v socket
Then I decided it was time for my wheels to be refurbished, got them powder coated in gunmetal grey at the wheel specialist in Newport
Swapped the rear audi badge for a black one
Finally for my latest mods, Ive fitted the Eibach Sportline springs I got off a member on here, V16, Im happy with them, given me a much better ride height and a smoother ride in my opinion, so all in all worthwhile.
Last but not least, a comedy tax disk holder
Next to do is some spacers, let me know what you think
