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!!!

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 very nice that, better in red than the white imo. Ive read on the audi sport forum that you were taking the wrap off, will look mean in matt black

Those wheels do look awsome
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!
How many times do you send your log book off for colour change lol
red - white - red - black - ??????????? whats next month
As said looks nice black wasnt sure about the white

Dont have too tell dvla as it is just a temporary color change or something like that was gonna have my fiesta done black
but it's pricey can get it paintedcor about the same price
was about to say i didnt like the wheels on the red, but fook me - looks hardcore in matt black!
ps i loved the white too, it must be a ballache with the time it takes to apply that stuff, then you take it all off

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!
