Got the film from Lamin-x in the states. I did the headlights and taillights myself. It's pretty easy. I've done my old car and a few mates cars in the past.
The precut sheets are fine for the headlights. If you're gonna do the tails, get a whole sheet and trim the excess after. The flared bottom and curves mean you'll have to really heat and stretch the precut pieces.

thanks again mate, will just be going for the pre cut fronts for now. going to order tomorrow and should be here in time for my time off at the end of january.

i might be pushing my luck but if you are around brisbane at that time and fancy supervising for your choice of beer i would be really grateful...

playing around with new wheel ideas; at the moment its between azev's and bbs. more thinking azev's as bbs have been done to death and i always wanted azev's right back to when i was in my teens (a long time ago).

i can't find any on an 8p a3/s3 to get an idea but i did find these on an 8l...



they are the same specs that i'm looking at and as i can't find any on an 8p i thought it would be something different. might go for a darker shade later down the track...



and finally one of my all time favourite cars...

The last image is pretty damn nice. Have you done much research on 8P wheel specs? Would you be going for the fat and flush look like above?

yes mate, the wheels i'm looking at work on paper. not always the case when you put them on the car though. different brand tyres have different side wall profiles which can have a big effect on things.

if my calculations are correct i might be able to run 235's without rubbing. not doing the stretched tyres this time, i want the performance of the s3 and will be going with fast road tyres...

At that size tyre I'm guessing you're looking at something like 18x8.5, around +47 to +50 offset and Falken tyres then?

Elementary my dear Watson (although not the tyre brand). i might see if the tyre shop will let me try a 235 first, if not then maybe a couple of cheap used 235's to try before i buy...
