Thank you - your build thread was really useful.Another Vegas! For someone with no modding experience you’ve done a cracking job so far!
Car is looking well! Did DaveB do your carbon for you?
Mk3 Turbo Blue TTRS SportView attachment 2634
TTRS was an impulse purchase - was actually looking for an S5 and after 6 months, the cons had started to outweigh the pros of owning it. By chance was flicking through Autotrader and found Audi had released a bunch of pre registered launch edition S5‘s. Made a few calls and a deal was done.
Separately always wanted to have a car that could be a bit of a hobby / project. This year to I finally got around to doing something about it and got the TTS to run alongside the S5.
So today i had this fitted,

Top shout out to Moonstone, i had never heard of this function before. But after half a day i am sold. The auto electrician that fitted it said that the install guide kindly written by moonstone made the install very straight forward and he was finished in 40 minutes.
Cheers Moonstone.

Nice choice of mods, all you need now is the bonnet vent. It takes 2 brave pills to cut through the bonnetDid the rear badges today as they both turned up. Think they look better!
I am going to wrap the rear diffuser myself (or give it a go) so I have ordered the 3M Gloss black. I have also ordered the TTRS front grill, and mirror covers, but its coming from Wuhan, so it will be a week or so wait.
Front de-badged ready, think it looks good! !
Ha - I'd need about dozen brave pills and then I'd probably pass out or get shaky hand man syndrome.Nice choice of mods, all you need now is the bonnet vent. It takes 2 brave pills to cut through the bonnet

Well done! That’s how my car came. With the chrome bit wrapped in black but I got the whole thing painted black including the grey bit.
Ps - I hate to say it but your new TTS badge looks wonky. Is one T higher than the other?
The last owner of my car decided to repaint the factory red calipers yellow but whoever has done it made an arse of it. A very dull yellow and a bubbling finish. So whilst putting my spacers on I decided to rub them down and re-do them properly with proper Caliper paint. This VHT branded stuff is excellent. I’ve been using it for years now.
I’ve got TTS decals to go on but I’ll wait till the paints proper cures before applying them.

Is it expensive to get the red on top of the block redone?
hi. Is this as straightforward as the pics? Sandpaper then spray on that’s it?
