Thanks for the quick bay detail mate! :)

Pics look brill. The stance on your car is near spot on now from seeing it before.

The S3 cover looks the nuts up close, can't wait to see it fitted!

Finishes it off nicely mate. Any more probably would be OTT but not sure what else you could do in the bay. Could you not get some black silicone hose repair tape to wrap sround the red wire? just a thought.

Is this an audi s3 part then? Is it an aftermarket product youve improved on or a standard cover that you have covered in carbon?

I have got a bit heat wrap to go over that but not got round to it yet :whistle:

I think your going to have to do the s3 battery cover now too

I'm not too keen on the S3 battery cover :think:

It started out as an S3 cover but it had to be extended to fit properly, then it was wraped in Carbon Fibre.
