Colour match is not as i would have liked but I will re paint these, also I think that you would get away with a 16mm hole as the 17mm which was exactly 17mm when drilled out and not a tight fit. The sensors are flush with the bumper inserted from behind and can be adjusted as...
Hi Chris, I got the paint off eBay it's a 2 stage base coat and lacquer spray can but as said the match is way off so I'm gonna go to my local auto paint international store and get it made to the shade of the car, it's about £12 for a 500ml. You can also get the paint made up from halfords...
Will get a pic tomorrow, the paint I got which was matched to the paint code is a mile out so I'm gonna paint them again, in the kit you get the sensors, the CPU, the buzzer and the other bits you need I was quite impressed. You will need to buy a 17mm hole saw to drill the bumper I got mine off...

Hi, I want to install rear parking sensors to my A3 Black edition and wondered if only an after market product would work, or can i buy a a loom and the sensors seperate from say ebay? Will my vehicle have the correct connections ect to install the second hand sensors and loom.

Thanks, I have considered cancelling to be honest and ordering a BMW 318d sport plus saloon but have decided to keep the Audi as i do a few Bike track days and need the boot space for my kit and spares.

Thanks Pilot - still doing some digging, i think it's just that Audi have not designed a new rear vallance as yet that has the pop out cover in the middle so Im guessing i will have to adapt the original and replace it at the end of the lease when the towbar will come off and the car go back.
