Quite the conversion, has made the car look 100x better. Headlights cost me about £450 shipped for the cluster. Speaking to the seller in China, he told me the headlights themselves and all the ballasts are genuine refurbished, the wires and plugs have been adapted and pre coded to work with PFL Led and FL Non LED (which both have the same plugs) without anything extra required. They are definitely a lot brighter and better looking than the sport ones.

The bumper was £600 from eBay aftermarket. Fits great. The whole project cost me around £1500. Which is not bad at all.

Before: Sport bumper + standard headlights

What a difference! Can I ask what grill was in the 1st photo it doesn’t look like my sport grill is it an American market grill or an S3 or something?

haha thank you & it’s a normal grill, I found these on AliExpress,

£29.77 14% Off | Chrome ABS Front Grille Decorative Cover Trim Strips 10pcs For Audi A3 2017 2018 2019 Car Styling Bumper decoration Decals

They’re chrome stick ons for the grill, they look really good and fit well, used the provided 3m and adhesive promoter and have planted on for the last 6 months.

Hi mate, can you please share where did you order these to fit without any coding?
 
I am sorry but that new grille isn't quite nice exposing radiator so much and barely I can see the grille...
You could go with silver or chrome this type of grille

You can get them on AliExpress but they’re almost £1000, I found the supplier from china and ordered, was much cheaper worked out to around £500 for both lights.

2017 facelift, I got an aftermarket rs3 bumper for the A3. These aren’t sweeping dynamic headlights these are just LED ones found on the S Line, the matrix ones are sweeping which are really hard to fit. I didn’t buy my headlights off a link but through a supplier in china

So I could buy an rs3 or s3 bumper and the conversion to A3 is straight swap?

S3 bumper is, the rs3 bumper is aftermarket designed to fit the A3 or s3, the oem rs3 bumper won’t fit due to the flared wings in the rs3
