OK Guys thanks for all the input on this thread, I have done the deed and Nige from BCS is sending me Anti Drone BCS Resonator delete kit. Got a little bit of discount as a forum member so that was very welcome, spoke to him on the phone to arrange purchase, what a thoroughly nice chap; really...

Further to the previous contributors experience I have just fitted the genuine Audi mudflaps to my S3 Saloon and thy are quite discreet and fit superbly well to all the contours and shapes particularly so at the front flap to sill . Again like the comment above I got mine off eBay from main...

Hi I wonder if anyone has any experience of the RacingLine DSG direct replacement levers made from Billet Alloy? I have seen them online and they do not stick or screw to the original paddles so seem to be a much neater solution. They can be seen @ https://www.racingline.com/vwr49g700. If...

Hi Just gone through this process and eventually settled on the S3 Saloon couldn't be happier with my choice. I tried the AMG A35 and initially was seduced by the exterior appearance and the high tech dash. When road testing the car I found the level of road noise from the tyres was really...

Hi Thanks for comment. Interesting that your fin was body colour, mine as you saw was black against silver body colour which looked odd but now is ok. Pictures don't convey fully how it has visually joined all the components together but as you can guess I am very happy with it now.

I have collected the car following the wrap being applied by The Bodycentre in Norwich to the roof section between the Panoramic Roof and Rear Screen. I am really pleased it looks to me how it should have looked from build, I know it is probably a bit of a Marmite issue but I am delighted with...

Sorry you feel that way @Son of the liberty it is awful if you get buyers remorse on any product but a car is such a high price item I truly feel sorry you are in that position. I have just bought a factory order S3 saloon and the opposite feeling to you where every time I get in it it makes me...

Thanks@ST200 for your post. Delivered car to The Bodycentre in Norwich this morning so looking forward to seeing her tomorrow when I go back to collect her after rear section roof wrap and fitting of Rieger front splitter

I have absolute confidence in the people I am using, have known them for 15 years as they were and still are the Jaguar Approved repairer for Norwich We used them for all our body/paint needs in my previous life @Inchcape Jaguar Norwich. It is a place called The Bodycentre, excellent people so...

Brilliant I will get dates sorted for March and call you to get it arranged. Many thanks

Thank you for the rapid response and detailed explanation contained in your reply. I would be delighted to have you carry out this work for me. I have some holiday due in early March, exact date TBC, so how much lead time would you require? I can provide Reg No or VIN or both as required and...

Hi Saw your video on YouTube regarding Hacks being done to get items working on a car only to lose the functionality if you have an update performed at a VAG dealership for warranty purposes. Also saw this thread which is of interest as Reverse Park Camera addition is on my to do list. My S3 is...

Hi @DJAlix Interesting that that should be your previous car. I have committed to piano black wrap having it done on Thursday so will supply before and after shots and post to see what you think.

Hi @S32B Many thanks for the picture that is exactly the type of image I was imagining and all the better for seeing it on a car. The white black contrast works well and will be similar on mine as Floret silver will create a clean contrast. I think it is strange that on light coloured cars they...

My thoughts entirely just looking to see if anyone else had done it. Thanks for response though it is appreciated.
