Superb work Scotty, looks beaming! You always do a top job, Mr Bailey will be proud of those snaps. Just need a push now to get a second polish on mine before end of Autumn. Ready for winter protect.

Picked up my freshly refurbished wheels yesterday only to be told one of them was buckled beyond repair even though it was fine visually. He showed it to me on the wheel balancing machine and let’s just say it moved side to side with enough force to take off. The current situation is that one of my wheels are odd. Happily, however the refurbishment company said they will refurbish the next wheel I pick up for free. So, I've purchased one and it shouldn’t be too long until I'm matching again. I must say I love the look of the FL S3 wheels. Also treated the car to a routine wash and sealant top up since today is the only day it won't rain!
Bad news about the wheel ........ but that is a sweet looking ride mate . Your detailing skills have come along nicely too Sent from my SM-N986B using Tapatalk
Thank you very much, not had the best of luck lately with the rear lights I purchased being wrong and now the wheel!
On a real mission to keep the A3 8v tip top till next year . Really want to maximise the sale value as we're eyeing up S3 8v's. Ideally an 17 / 18 plate. Gotta have the chrome touches, just split between a Daytona or blue variant. Either way looking fir something fully loaded. Can't wait !! Sent from my SM-N986B using Tapatalk
Was wondering how long the return fire would take how are you Nev ? Sent from my SM-N986B using Tapatalk
Haha, same here, had weeks of webbing around the door mirrors, cleared them off and next day came back again. Never managed to catch the spider out from living behind the door mirrors, fast buggers.
All good mate, good to hear you are planning a upgrade of your A3, but next owner will be getting one heck of a car! Look forward to the hunt, subscribe me. Detailing for me slowed down in the last few weeks, complete kitchen replacement taking lots of planning
i'll give ye a shout before l go to sell mine's suppose you could wrap the high gloss black..... A reversal of whats normally done lol
Fitted new cctv over the drive. And washed the car, of course. Night and day shot. Just hate the sight of those ****** wheelie bins now!
l had the illuminated door sil plaques replaced by Audi today and the barstewards have scratched the paintwork either end of the plaques....******* raging so i better be able to correct this **** up or they will reep my ******* Wrath...why not use masking tape.....my car was in showroom condition this morning when l handed it over....so common sense should tell the techs that this punter is meticulous....so better be careful...............*****
Feel your pain. I’ve had bumpers, doors etc scratched after getting serviced or warranty work. Thing is a trim removal tool is buttons from like of Amazon. I’ve had trims off the car and not managed to scratch or even a light mark. That was retrofitting folding door mirrors where lots of bits have to come off and stored. It’s just as bad if they wash the car even after I tell them not to.
Sorry to read this, what ****. Your car is mint. Can't trust anybody to care and look after a very well kept car other than yourself. Morons
Feel your pain @jassyo06 Reminds me of when my local Audi main dealer trashed a wheel on my old S4 when it was in for service
@A4A4 @Bristle Hound @AlS3BE thanks for the replies guys am phoning the service dept first thing tomorrow.....just can't calm down about it.....
So I thought I'd give paint correction a go, got myself a Das Pro 6 plus and a couple of Hex Logic Quantum pads. Then set about practising on my old bus with Scholl S20. It took a long time as the cars quite big but very happy with the results:
Av taken 2 days off in the past month for the car service/brake fluid change plus the warranty work....not taken the car in again to them l just phoned and told them how it was and l will never put my cars or my families cars into them for anything again so l will repair it myself bought some 40 mm green Rupes pads work paid for them lol so i'll get the rotary with a extension bar out this weekend and polish all four door sills mate
