    covering number plates

    Its not a cover the plate has a different reflective lacquer or something on it, a lot of cars have it on, i think Rob (who owns the RS in question in the pic) just wanted it as it matched the matt grey wrap he had but as Cruiser89 says it will be illegal so why bother. i have the legal german...

    covering number plates

    At first i thought you meant the show plates that look kind of rubber almost, normally the same colour as the paintwork on the car, i have always wondered what these are but what i think you are referring to is similar to this picture (on the MK2 Focus RS...

    Time for a build thread....big turbo

    Good to know, looking forward to the pics, i am going down the wheel and tyre upgrade soon, i spoke to Ben at AMD and he told me not to get 19's as they mostly always cause issues and to stick with an 18 which is what you have done, therefore there must be a massive benefit, so something in an...

    Time for a build thread....big turbo

    Ah ok well that explains that then, shame as i would have like to see it in the flesh, a lot of time and effort and of course money has gone into your car, AMD have been nothing but helpful when i have used them and were always able to turn bits around quickly or get me in last moment. So much...

    Hi Alex, A quick question, i notice in your build thread that when you did your 4 wheel alignment you mentioned negative camber on the rear. I am running stock springs and suspension and standard 18" rims on my S3, i do however have 15" spacers on the rear and 10mm spacers on the front, i am...
