Anyone sprayed the grey rear bumper insert on an S3?


I maintain that ANYTHING can be fitted with cable ties.....
 

Ah right ok Does look better tho imo. Maybe a whole new tailgate is in order....!

errr, welly how did you secure your engine back in?

fran i like the colour coded insert on yours, its a slightly different shape on the facelift isnt it, mines pre and doesnt have that dip in it, just flat

think i may go with carbon wrapping mine, if it looks cack just rip it off again
 
sorry matey, not liking the silver at all, the bumper looks loads bigger and more subtle, just like an everyday hatchback rather than a subtle sports car
 
Would love carbon rear bumper insert and skirts and wing mirrors and front and rear rings, i like carbon haha
 
exactly what i was thinking vauxhall corsa lol

i think spraying them similar to oem would look good but colour coding doesn't look nice IMO to much of one colour
but if you like it do it, its your car
 
Ill get a pic of mine up when i clean it saturday, it looks awesome compared to what it did.

like i have done :icon_thumright: here is a pic of it now, laqure painted very similar to std but slightly lighter



and here is what std looks like in contrast can't tell the difference in the pics really but you certinaly can if you park next to another s3 not that your likely to as were a rare beast

 
that looks sweet kev
im liking your car alot
are you going to remove the rings?
 
Your car looks awesome Kev, was just thinking, the lighter grey looks sweet so what if your had the black bit of the Aero 18's sprayed the same grey? Big risk but just a mad thought lol

think im leaving the wheels untill they need a referb could'nt bring my self to risking ruining a nice set of rims, but have been thinking of doing the whole wheel antracite when referb is needed, there a really quality wheel though so cant see them needing referb any time soon
 
cool can't wait to see it at the pod
 
I had a very good result with T-Cut Metallic, as its less abrasive than the original...
