Hello everyone,
I've been driving my car for a while now and absolutely love the overal experience. That said, there are a few aspects of the interior that could use some aesthetic refinement. I noticed that some of you have already suggested wrapping the piano black interior elements on another thread. So, I thought it would be helpful to create a dedicated space here to pool together ideas for enhancing the car's interior aesthetics, as well as to assist with any questions you might have.
My First Improvement:
I've installed an OEM driver-side glove box, part number 8Y1 863 084 A 4PK (for LHD vehicles). This provides a convenient space for items like sunglasses.
My Second Improvement:
I've upgraded the trunk lighting with a much brighter light (link) . Additionally, I've installed another light on the opposite side of the trunk using (link2). For this, I replaced the existing door well light with Audi ring lights. I'll be sharing pictures soon once my car returns from the shop. I've found these changes to be excellent improvements.
Third Improvement:
I've also added B&O covers above the speakers, which I purchased from this link. While they're not OEM, they have a great look and break up the monochromatic black color scheme on the door. However, I'm still on the hunt for covers that resemble the OEM ones, so if anyone knows where to find them, I'd love to hear from you.
A Question:
Has anyone had success with applying Alcantara or a similar material to the door panels? My car came with faux leather on the doors, which I find unappealing. I initially tried an Alcantara wrap from AliExpress, but it didn't adhere well. Now, I'm considering purchasing genuine Alcantara and am looking for recommendations on the type of glue that would be best suited for this application.
I appreciate your insights and look forward to your suggestions.
Thank you!
