Picked up my A3 1.8T S Line on Monday. It is a 2007 reg in Dolphin Grey with loads of extras. Pics at the dealership:

Already knew the extra bits I wanted to buy to make it how I wanted it so got straight on with it and nipped into my local dealership to pick up my Black Optics Grill and a leather armrest (got a great deal on them aswell :)) and after much struggling, got them both fitted yesterday

Future plans are RS4 Black edition alloys, Medium window tints on back 3 windows and RNS-E Sat Nav system :)
 
Looks good with the optic grill!I do like your alloys aswell! But i think the dark Rs4 alloys would like good with your colour of car. And window tints! I'm having all my windows tinted 3 back windows darker than the front. I know your not allowed the front two but i dont really care stupid law if you ask me
 
Very nice mate!

Used snow foam today on my car for the first time - well impressed with it - makes a huge difference doing this before a wash - you could see the foam/dirt running down the side of the car.
 
Thanks for the comments chaps :beerchug:

Grill was from a main dealer

Got armrest with leather lid and full optics grill with plate holder for £325. Think RRP was £400 :) I know I could have probably got them cheaper if I waited for them to come up second hand on ebay but Im impatient :racer:

Is your old chrome grille for sale?

Car looks great mate.
 
very nice mate, have you looked at getting a cupra splitter? best £20 i spent i spent i think.

i think the optics grill makes the car look so much better, more mean
lamin-X?
 
Sorry original grill not for sale, was damaged when removing :(

Think I am going to go down the dark route so may go for lamin-x :)
 
Black grill suits very well. Always liked those wheels too. Lamin-x would look great!
 
Looks great. I like the black grill and wheels. Going to get a remap next?
