Cheers guys, will be starting the job at the end of the week an let you know how I get on. The picture definitely looks like it will help, thanks Customboy! I see the wheels are removed too, is this to allow bumper removal?
I'm trying to replace the standard headlights on my 2000 A3 for a new set of angel eyes. Removed the top screws and disconnected all wiring but can't see how to remove the whole unit, does anyone know if the bumper needs to come off like on the facelift model or can this be done with bumper in...
I have managed to get hold of a set of front and rear bumpers from the 2001 facelift model S3 and am looking to fit to a 2000 model A3 1.6. I've seen articles on here where guys have fitted pre-facelift parts and the general consensus is that they just bolt straight on with no extra work. Does...

cheers

I'm new to the world of A3 and to modding. I'm wanting to upgrade my current A3 and was wondering if anyone has some good suggestions for cheap easy areas to begin with? Also, can anyone tell me the pipe diameter for the exhaust of the 1.6i as I'm looking to replace the back box.
