Acquired, via a friend who works for Audi an RS3 exhaust with sound flaps to fit better around my rear 4 motion running gear. So some further mods required to the R32 rear bumper i.e to blank off centre twin outlets and create 2 new side oval outlets. Should look and sound ok I hope

Inner rear wheel arches sliced off, extending pieces inserted and tacked up. Goal is to hide the rear dampers within the arch and to look as oem as possible. So far so good and pleased on progress. Mocking up a custom tank once the subframe is fitted and stainless steel baffled tank will be built.

Loving this Hef. Be interested to see how you mount the shocks within the arches. I thought you had to have a short tower to get the height to fit anything. If you and @james400 are not careful, you'll have a queue of us outside waiting to get this done (I would love to go 4wd to be able to get the power down better).

Wingback Gti's, R32 then upgraded R36 power and 4 motion for my pure grey
Thanks Dan mate hoping to keep everything within the arch including my big 10J rear wheels... although i take no credit myself! Ive had loads of support in planning this even before touching it! Having a Commercial VAG master tech as a mate, with keys and permission to a closed parts dept, all the wiring software and great expert forum friends including a pair of butchers balls to contemplate the job certainly helps .... a lot hahaaaa ...
@james400 ... if you think im taking my plasma or grinder to Dan’s blue master piece and front page mag legend ... you’re on your own buddy hahaaa ...
Hoping to get to the workshop later so update soon on progress guys!
