Can someone with an S3 with 19" alloys from factory help me with a VIN number? I am interested in the springs. They do seem different
As you can see the stock 18" suspension is annoyingly high.

Such a shame that in the UK you have to have a registration plate on the front of the car..... looking at this pic the front grill looks even better without one
Yeah it looks sweet without a plate on the front, unfortunately they attatched the plate 5 mins after i took that picture :D

Picked this up a couple weeks ago. My last Audi was a 2000.5 A4 1.8T, this reminds me a lot of that car, but like x1000

Looks smart that does. What drop are the springs and does it effect the adaptive dampers having it lowered.

20mm drop from S3 suspension. No difference that I can tell however looking into whether I need my adaptive dampeners adjusting or not.

I’ve been waiting to get mine ceramic coating before I posted any pictures, these are from the day I picked it up at the detailing place.

Got mine back in December - Edition One Mythos Black.

I gave my car it’s first clean today, 4 days after picking it up. I wanted to put my own touch to the car. In all fairness the dealer prepped the car well! Hardly any swirls, I was impressed!
Regardless the car had a de iron and tar, clay and refinement polish. Followed by 2 coats of ceramic coating, as well as the interior leather and carpets sealed. Chuffed with the results!

Very shiny!!! How much did all that cost you? Did you apply the ceramic coating yourself?

How often do you have to reapply all that stuff?

Cheers! Yeah I did the work myself. The ceramic coat should last up to 12 months, it’s Gyeons latest evo range.

Ceramic coat £33:
Polish £13.95
Iron x £18.95:

the rest of the stuff is the usual car cleaning bits :thumbs up:

Nice to see a Python yellow make an appearance on the thread. I think it's a colour that looks good in the flesh, not sure that pics always do it justice. Definitely suits the black pack in Edition 1 spec.

You're right, it does look better in the flesh, especially in the sunshine. Will grab a pic when weather permits...

Took delivery of this beauty on Thursday afternoon.

After a decontamination, quick polish and a layer of Gyeon Wax she’s looking good

Have to say that looks gorgeous! What decontamination did you have to do post delivery?
