Ok, I thought I should stick some pics up since I've had it 2 weeks now!
As I picked it up...
And the bad bit...
And now the good...
New light and spoiler fitted, still have a bit of work to do on the bump but I've "improved" it till I have time to work on it as the car is in daily use so can't start work on it properly till I have a couple of days off to work on it.
And thats it up to date.
I'm looking for a set of wheels that'll fill the arches a bit more and I'll be ordering some lowering springs at the end of the month depending on how well I get paid!! |

You've done a nice job fitting the spoiler, it can be tricky. Scarey stuff drilling holes in your boot lid isn't it
Dont dismiss the wheels you have. I've been trying to find some pics I know I have somewhere but with no luck . They show these 'Aero' wheels on a 90 but bare metal polished and a 40mm drop. they look superb
Car looks great, nice progress.

Cheers for the comments.
It was quite scary drilling the boot lid but I sat for ages lining it up before I made a hole!!
The fence is there cos the chimney above it is falling apart! |

Just won a set of 80/coupe 10 spoke alloys on Ebay for £21! They even have decent tyres on them.
Hopefully have them on by the weekend. |

New pics from today, got some new Meguires #26 Yellow carnuba wax....
Really impressed with the new polish but the paint is badly needing polished with the buff.
Might try get it done this weekend...

No mate, The car is moving on unfortunatly.
My commute to work has gone up by about 40 miles a day so the Audi's gonna be too greedy.
The new owner will look after it just as much as I have and he'll no doubt join the forum once he has it.
The new wheels are for sale in the classifieds. |
