Few updates!

Hand made carbon fiber B pillars arrived.



I have bought BLACK 3.2mm x 11mm rivets to fit the B pillars on, as the OEM rivets are silver and I want them to blend in a little more.

Will be fitting these next week.

Boot lid has got a blister, so I am now booked in to have the full boot / back bumper sprayed and I will be putting the S3 valance on.

They are from RS Carbon in Hungary, around about £220!

So, my boot was becoming scabby as hell. Right before fitted UK i jet washed the hatch and it blew paint off where it was just starting to blister.

I decided to have the boot / bumper and S3 valance painted.

I took it to TRAVIS AUTOS in St Helens. I will let the photos do the talking:











Super happy with the outcome. Travis is sick at what he does and I am booking back in to have the roof, back quarter (due to cloudy mess from the last person who painted it after my little car park incident.) bonnet and side skirts.

Finally fitted the Carbon B pillars from RS Carbon !





Treated myself as it's Christmas and all that! Brand new flat
Bottom steering wheel. I opted for a non multifunction as I truly could not be bothered retro fitting all controls to work! I think it looks awesome anyways!



And all fitted up!
