[warrenlord]

Looks the tits mate, sorry I've only skim read but how's it all gone fitting the brakes as they looks the f*kin tits, cheeky but got a price on what it cost to do them as I really do want some. Pluss what's going on with the my11s as I do want some??

 

[PH1L]

[N8]

Ha Ha well done Ash, your a good lad.

 

[smudge_don]

TTRS brakes would have finished it off....oh well

 

[Dec]

This car is awesome! have you had any problems being low with the snow or not really driven it much?

Wish my '04 looked as good!

 

[S3RYE]

[James.Asbri]

Car is really starting to take shape now Ash, good work and keep the mods going!

 

[Shane.]

Very jealous of the brakes mate, would love some S3 callipers. Don't take this wrong way mate but how did ugly ****** like you get a missus like that haha.

 

[~RS~]

Those S3 brakes look very nice mate! Should look great against the dark rims... What exhaust tips have you got there now Ash? Are those the MY11 one's or is that a different back box?

 

[WelshWoody83]

Looks vern nice...this may sound stupid but after all that effore of bluring your number plates out, youve left one with them crystal clear on, and the red audi too...

 

[Bugsy_27]

Thanks Lee Hows your brother getting on? Is he any better mate? Next on the list is to finish my custom rear bumper and new custom back box done. Fitting new steering wheel, xenon headlights and new front seats :icon_thumright: and then a few suprises. Hopefully by my 21st the car will be done

My brothers doing amazing mate, appreciate you asking, he walked for the first time in 18 weeks last week (3 weeks ago they said it's doubtful he'll walk) and he's home for good on the 28th Jan, can't wait!

Looking forward to seeing your car come together, Love it at the mo.

Hi Dec

Cheers for the comment. Yeah still driven the car alot, cant let the snow put my life on hold ha. Had a few little bit problems yesterday with being low, my car ends up a snow plough lol! Snow and ice gather in the wheel arches and then my tyres just rub against them flicking more snow in the arches which did get me stuck yesterday for a bit. But just removed the excess sh*t under the arches and behide the wheels and the car just pulled off. Loved it saw a brand new 335i m sport stuck yesterday and i just drove past

Car is really starting to take shape now Ash, good work and keep the mods going!

Thanks James. Dont worry wont be stoping the work got alot more mods to be done.
I'll keep my eye for you in your new car

Very jealous of the brakes mate, would love some S3 callipers. Don't take this wrong way mate but how did ugly ****** like you get a missus like that haha.

Aww Shane dno need to be jealous of my looks mate You loved me at ADI and commented on my good looks anyway Haha cheers for the comments on the brake. Also add me on facebook tried finding you on there. You keeping your car now? As im sure i saw an advert for her?

Those S3 brakes look very nice mate! Should look great against the dark rims... What exhaust tips have you got there now Ash? Are those the MY11 one's or is that a different back box?

Alright Rich

You decide on your dilemma after? Springs or coils lol? Thanks for the comment. I got a custom exhaust mate

My brothers doing amazing mate, appreciate you asking, he walked for the first time in 18 weeks last week (3 weeks ago they said it's doubtful he'll walk) and he's home for good on the 28th Jan, can't wait!

[James.Asbri]

Thanks James. Dont worry wont be stoping the work got alot more mods to be done.
I'll keep my eye for you in your new car

My car is parked up for good it seems at the minute with this weather, hasn't been out for over a week, still, with it being on the drive it's not getting dirty from those roads.

It hardly done 500 miles, haven't seen you around lately but i'll keep my eye out for you, I'm sure you'll stick out in the crowd

 

[jungleman]

Dont blame you mate i wouldnt travel that distance if my clutch was slippin knowning my luck it give ut lol....Nice are they the figures in your sig? Good lad hopefully see you at the bigger events

well its holding out as long as i dont abuse it too much haha
yea those are the ones, thats with the iffy clutch, misfire and now that audi have looked at it a fair serious EPS fault haha
will do, be good to put more faces to the names

 

[~RS~]

Thought the tips look a bigger, was thinking about one for mine, but still haven't decided if its staying or going yet. Yours is looking mean now.

 

[Dec]

Hi Dec

But just removed the excess sh*t under the arches and behide the wheels and the car just pulled off. Loved it saw a brand new 335i m sport stuck yesterday and i just drove past

Cheers dude, yeah I had that myself, right pain! haha. I smashed my undertray off, but must have been loose to start with as when I took it off yesterday it was pretty mangled! Going to lower it some more in the spring once the weather improves, yours looks a lot lower than mine especially on the back! Would love mine to look like yours, can't find S3 bumpers and skirts anywhere (plus they would probably be too much money for what I want to spend on a high miler!)

Seen some many BMW's dumped at the bottom of hills round here, some people need to learn how to drive in the snow or stay at home if the car isn't suitable!

 

[PH1L]

not entirely sure lad, might have an offer on 19"bbs chs alternatively 19" vw luganos are on the list

Just think thats better for you because you not driven her much and not put any miles on her so when you do take her out its gonna feel all brand new Haha yeah im sure i'll stick out from the crowd blacked out a3 and no front plate on. Have a good christmas mate and new year

well its holding out as long as i dont abuse it too much haha
yea those are the ones, thats with the iffy clutch, misfire and now that audi have looked at it a fair serious EPS fault haha
will do, be good to put more faces to the names

Haha how long you think that will last? Lol so considering your car feeling quite sorry for it self she done quite well Hope you get these problems sorted soon and have a good christmas and new year

Thought the tips look a bigger, was thinking about one for mine, but still haven't decided if its staying or going yet. Yours is looking mean now.

If it goes what you gonna replace her with Rich? Aw cheers i need some xenons and i'll be happy with the front end and the rear end needs some sorting out. Have a good christmas and new year

No problem. Its is a nightmare, got stuck in my car park as they not cleared it up or anything so digging my way out on wednesday night lol. How much will a new undertray cost dec? How low are you now?
Yeah the back as low as it can go lol i took the adjusters out I want to lower the front a little bit more but when the weather better so the snow doesnt kill my new splitter ha.
I got my S3 bumper off ebay they are like good dust mind, i want some s3 skirts but dont know when i'll get them. If you dont want to spend too much do the s-line conversion?

Lol i just find it funny, no way would i just leave my car some where. And it suprises me how many people you see in 1st wheel spinning. whats the plans for your car? Have a good christmas and new year aswell Dec

 

[Ash B]

not entirely sure lad, might have an offer on 19"bbs chs alternatively 19" vw luganos are on the list

BBS CH are always a good choice IMO. Same goes for the CK's both are one of my favourite set of alloys.
Yeah i've seen those VW alloys on an A3 before, they do look nice. Have a good christmas and new year Phil

 

[jungleman]

Haha how long you think that will last? Lol so considering your car feeling quite sorry for it self she done quite well Hope you get these problems sorted soon and have a good christmas and new year

dont blame them as BBS are oh so nice! still want a pair, but everything i spend on the car seems to end up being a performance mod rather then a looks one... think its time the looks got a turn!
na think you should leave the exterior as it is... looks the nuts!

 

[FranA3]

nice one dude agree with sarah tho i think the white mk4 looks top notch as it is !
