ELLIOTT

hey guys/girls i too am new, hopefully u still read these lol, i also have a A3, mine is a 98plate so almost 14 years old!! i have been looking for bits to put on mine also and as the student lad said, A4 bits do fit aswel as couple of the newer models of the A3 up to 53 plate i believe. Things like the headlights/breaklights fit, so instead of like mine where the headlights and indicators are seperate, the newer lights are joined and clearer. Under the hood there are simple things that dont even have to be Audi, such as universal air filters and air breathers. if you remove the manufacturer airfilter you WILL need to also replace the oil breather, looks like a miniture version of the airfilter, available in differant colours mainly red, blue and black. Another simple yet effective thing to do decorative is get some Hammerite paint and paint your brake calipers, again comes in many colours and can be picked up in any halfords or B&Q or most motor stores. On my A3 my engine does have the large plastic engine cover to which i removed, degreased, rubbed down any thick grime/scrathes etc, primed it 3-4 coats and sprayed it 3-4 coats but am yet to Lacker it to prevent the paint peeling/flaking. You can also if u want, re-spray some of the interior bits like door handles (around the chrome and where you pull door closed etc), outside of the ashtray, airvents etc and for engine area things like the lids for water, oil, windscreen wash etc, i wouldnt suggest re-spraying the hoses as the temperature could cause a problem and u will waste time and money so just get some hose covers looks just as good, i will add pictures of my work in progress motor. I have a LIST of things i plan to do to my A3 so if you want any suggestions or ideas, you can always message me im always willin to help. I know i've babbled on a bit but i hope that its helped!? As i'm part of a car cruise group i have alot of ambitions for my car so any suggestions to give me, websites etc im just as willing to accept them as i am to give the advice, unfortunately i dunno about where to looks for mods yet. be cool to hear from ya's Regards, Elliott - 22, Brighton UK
