Default New wheels on the Audi!!

Fancied replacing the wheels so went for a wider 9.5x19 with 235/35/19 tyres to give it a slight stretched look! Well pleased with way it looks, just got to get the lowering springs fitted!

Also started the matt black vinyl wrap!!!

I like it in the original red with the de-chroming mate.

....think it needs dropped a bit to pull off the dish of the new wheels??


Cheers,

OldDan - yeah fancied a change, was originally going to do it matt black so thought i'd try it out - good practice!!!! So far easier than the white vinyl!!

RSGrant - got the H&R springs in the boot, just got to get around to fitting them!

looks the nuts, what about thinks like rear parking sensors? or round the front headlight washer jets?

Would be nice to see some of the close up bits as fancy having this done in white to either the A3, or buying a 3 series couple and having that done white!!

Vinyl is too thin to affect parking sensors . With the washer jets you remove the plastic plate, wrap around the hole, then wrap the plate bit seperately and refit!

Didn't think I'd like it Matt Black to be honest Chris... I was wrong, looks fantastic.

Few more pics...! Decided I'm gonna do the front bumper again, was one of the first panels I did (with a minging hangover!!) and noticed I cut too far from the headlight (notice the red under the light). Did the sideksirt yesterday afternoon. Aiming to get it finished by the end of the weekend!
