1.6 mod suggestions?

[NewX]

Hey guys!
I'm new to this modding stuff and would love to do various bits and pieces to my new A3. I know the general consensus is that there's not much point in modding the engine of a 1.6 but I'd like to do a couple of small things - just for fun kinda stuff really.

Interior, exterior and engine mod suggestions are what I'm looking for! Pics for reference.

I can recommend Eibach Pro-Kit springs because I have those on my car and have had Eibach Sportline ones in the past too.

In terms of coilovers I'd recommend going with a set that have threaded bodies so you don't alter the spring rate when you lower the car and also ones that have adjustable dampers so you can fine tune the damping characteristic to suit your needs.

A set of coilovers with those features won't be cheap, however, if I add up the money I've spent trying different suspension I should have gone with some coilovers in the first place, it would have been cheaper

Grills & bumpers you can get facelift ones pretty cheap on eBay just be careful because you need the whole front end, wings, headlights etc it's not just a bumper job

OEM tech you want RNS-E, bluetooth, & cruise control as a base level...then take it from there. Nigel @NHN has done all the retrofitting on my car so I recommend him...be warned though, he likes a starbucks lol
