Hi everyone! Loving the atmosphere on this site, everyone seems so helpful! Just wanted to introduce everyone to my car
Audi A3 Sportback 2.0 TDI Black Edition (170bhp). 70k miles
Loving the drive somfar. Hoping to freshen it up a touch...
RS3 grille (arriving tomorrow)
Black sline front wing badges
AMD stage 1 remap
Lowering 20-25mm (suggestions for springs appreciated)
And finally, either looking to sort the paintwork out or vinyl wrap. Seen some lovely colours on here, again, open to comments
Will upload a pic shortly, hopefully tomorrow
Thanks

Welcome to audi-sport.net. Glad you enjoying the forum. Look forward to the pics. For lowering the car get in touch with @DPM site sponsors. Damian will help you out there

Hi Rob,

Welcome to ASN.
Plenty of advice and help here,and if it's AMDTuning you're going to,they'll do a good job for you.
A lot of the work on my car has been done by them,and I can recommend them.

Welcome to the A3 Sportback club. Get some pics up when you can and I'm looking forward to seeing the RS3 grille fitted as it's something I really want to buy for mine.

Yup, this thread is worthless without pics!

Hi everyone! Thanks for the response. Sorry for the lack of pics, work has been chaos last few days! Still managed to find time to fit the grille managed to take a few pics, car will be getting a well needed clean soon!

 

[leshkin]

That looks very tidy! Looking forward to more updates

Finally some pictures of my dirty car! haha thanks for all the comments everyone

Few things on the to-do list:
Wheels resprayed (either RS3 black and grey or all black - opinions?)
Trip to AmD - Stage 1 remap and Eibach sport springs
Boring old service and cambelt change soon (Boooooo!!)
And last thing on the list for the next month or so is POSSIBLY a full wrap in Nardo grey, maybe gloss black roof to mix it up a bit

Yep I was really happy with my AMD stage 1 map and definitely agree with the Eibach Sportline springs, they're awesome. Unless you know someone who does it, wraps can be quite expensive (seen quotes of £2.5k) and I think nardo grey is one of the worst colours on a car but that's just my opinion

good to hear you remap went well. How much do the springs lower the car? don't want anything too drastic! And that's interesting you say that about the grey. I see so many audis on here that colour! but each to their own

Welcome mate, nice car and grill looks good.

I think they will lower your Black Edition by 25mm or so. Worth speaking with Damian @ DPM.
Yeah just my opinion re nardo. I think Suzuka Grey is 1m times better, check it out:

Them 3 pics all look completely different shades of grey Don't worry dude, not rushing into it, full wrap is a little way down the list so i'll be thinking it over and over. Thanks for the suggestion though
