She looks outrageously good here - you went slightly away from my own preferences after that, so I'm not quite as keen in the newer pics, but this looks fantastic. No reflection on how it looks now, you've still done a great job - it's just not quite my thing.

 

[Paullie]

What a stunner! Love the new wheels and carbon bits especially. Top work, Chris. xx

 

[NobberUK]

Also, nice Lego man keyring :thumbsup:

Cheers mate

Yes its a MK1 TT gator took a bit of fitting including putting a forge quick shift on so that it would swing right but i'm well happy with it.


MartayMcFly there Audi S5 seats that i had trimmed in the same style as the 4k optional RS3 seats Oh the lego man was a christmas presant from my 3 year old daughter

Did some work on my front plate blanker the weekend as i wanted to break the black at the front up a bit more to work with the wheels.

Brought a grey plate blanker with the chrome trims and swapped then into my black plate holder.

very nice chris, you know I loved it at UD. was good to catch up with you again.

By the way the pics from the shoot are amazing...........I have a new wall paper on my MacBook Pro now : )

 

[~RS~]

Wow those wheels!!! I like them a lot not what I would've put on but work very very well. Excellent interior touches as well

 

[b19ctr]

Couple more parts ready to go on and brought a new keyring that i thought suited the car :icon_thumright:

Also had a bit of luck on Facebook and won a watch off Audi UK

 

[S.]

lovely motor...and the keyring

 

[A3_Black_Edition]

Wow, that is all.

 

[N8]

Good work! Lovely watch as well

new member here with a quick question, 1st of all congrats to a cracker lookin motor, before i bought my sportback i had a jook on here and seen this and thought sportbacks can look awesome........ so question is what was ur wheel and suspension setup prior to the air mod.
when you wer running the s6 wheels which i thought looked perfect with a perfect everyday ride height....

cheers mate

 

[b19ctr]

Hi mate prior to the air ride i was running KW V3's wound all the way down it allowed me to run the S6's with no rubbing. I still love the S6's but they dont work with air ride

The ride on KW V3's is better than standard ride even when there all the way down.

 

[schmergal]

Cheers mate..... And the wheels 19/9 all round with 215/35/19? Offset?

 

[b19ctr]

Yes but you'll need to run spacers i ran 5mm on the front and 8mm on the rear as the S6 wheels are ET52

 

[b19ctr]

Another little mod done to mine

MK2 Audi TT rear view mirror wrapped in carbon by Paul at C6carbon.com

Also fitted the Forge Motorsport coolant bottle will have to get some pics of the engine bay

 

[S3RYE]

[b19ctr]

[amar06fbr]

[b19ctr]

Cheers guys i'm saving for my RNSE next i think with a few bits going on in the engine bay as well also need an arm rest lol the list never seems to go down.

 

[A3_Black_Edition]

Your car is epic mate! I love the look, it looks evil!

Cheers,
Si

 

[b19ctr]

Wow not updated this thread for a while.

Decided the OZ need to be a different colour and got persuaded to go gold as my mate said it works for John Player!

brought a 2012 rnse which is the business with the Bose

The OZ have now gone so my cars in winter mode back on the Fat 5's but running 10mm spacers on the rear to make them et35

I've got a new set of rims i'm rebuilding at the moment there 18's this time but going 8.5j front and 9.5j rear still tucking

Oh and finally this came out today

 

[S3 Rav]

Great looking car as already said bud.
