  • I **** black cars. So I bought another. [A3 daily]

    I seriously **** black cars. Yes, it looks nice when clean but it stays clean like 5min after just detailing it.
    So 99% of the time it just sucks balls. But like John Wayne says: "Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid."

    I needed a reliable daily driver since the old shitbox started to show some signs of failure after the long winter.
    So I opted to go for Audi A3 8P 2.0tdi with 6MT. It serves me well for my daily purposes.
    So this is what I bought:



    You don't have to rant about the ride height. I think the current setup is straight from the moon buggy, definately something worth 'considering' of changing.

    After a bit of detailing and 35% llumar all-around (also deleted the model badges):

            yea that was taken with the back jacked up a little when i was doing my diff, thought it was funny. it would be fairly retarded to be that low, i tried it ounce and it rides like shit and i literally cant leave my neighborhood, but it currently shits a little higher than that. prob about 1/2 a inch or so more than my sig. sorry for the off topic OP

              Wheels I have ready to go, just waiting for to install the coils sometime next week. I'd prefer the bags but they are relatively expensive here for the car and there are no good shops that know how to install them and the legistlation is so strict that it would require some additional fiddling.. So static it must be and for a daily, why not.

                Changed the wheels to these:



                Hmm.. then again (decided just to try the M front wheels).

                  Nice Audi.

                  Go with the BBS, I **** those weird Audi Wheels with a passion, haha.

                  APs are pretty good, I'm currently still running a set myself in my Touring, but they'll get replaced this year as they're nearly completely worn.

                        Well finally got the coils installed. Don't really know what to do with the height. Coils are all the way down in front and rear. When I was looking at coils there seemed not to be any low static kits for the A3 so perhaps this a known 'problem' but I was certainly a bit disappointed.




                        Also removed the front plate

                              Some better pictures of the current state. I'd like to get more low but the coils are maxed out at the moment. Any suggestions on a low coilover setup? Not really comfortable of going with bags here.. After that I could swap some 3-piece quality wheels.
