Thanks mate!

But I will get my red hood back from the bodyshop tomorrow because the clearcoat went off. This one is only a pretty dull temporary one. And my red hood still got the silver rings.
And they did a great job in fixing the door, cant see anything and everything is perfect.

[Nagah]

***Newsflash***

Red hood is back. And the color mismatch is very very little. I guess if you don't know it, you will not even notice it. I like it when people do good work for a reasonable price.






Aa~aand mounted: The Votex wing, also a nice paintjob from the bodyshop.






Here you can see how the front sits, I think the fitment is not too bad, is it?







And finally, some rubbing in the back. Very easy to fix, will go for that later since its only rubbing on plastics which doesn't bother me too much. Maybe on the weekend or so...

Nice A2. Looks pretty good lowered and the new wing and wheels suit very well.
I hope the insurance takes care of your door

[Nagah]

Yes mate, they did. Everything is fine again.

[ape101]

Glad to hear

Added the screws to the spoiler.





Sideskirts, front and backlip are at the bodyshop to get repainted.

Why repainted? Good that you are asking!
A co-worker of mine told me that a buddy of his is working at a bodyshop and can paint my primered bodykit for small money.
Since he was recommended by a co-worker and the fact that he worked for Mercedes once was enough for me to entrust him with this task.

Well. Guyze, one good advice. If you are low on money and time, be sure that you see one of the work that is promised to you. I got the bodykit back and it was not glossy black but "rattlecan matte" with lots of pimples in it. I could have achieved the same with a can, really. However at the moment I am trying to get my advance payment back, but he seems to ignore all of my messages.

Bodykit is now painted and mounted and what can I say. I love it!









Proper fotos will follow.

Another rolling shot from the annual A2 meet in Germany.

[Nagah]

Today I didnt have to drive my car. I just did it for fun and enjoyed it. A lot.

Guys, I can really recommend it: Just go out for a ride. No goal, no purpose, just go. No need for a therapist then.

Next step: Some noise cancelling in the front doors:

Top A2...
And the fact that is an all-aluminium car, helps in Germany!

Keep up with the work! ;D

Looks good! Reminds me of a little chubby kid for some reason.

Thank you...I guess.

Nice looking A2. What is the brand and size of your tires?
