Its nice to have a build thread all in the same place so here is yet another thread from me

i picked up this audi coupe 2.2 5 pot quattro from north london quite a few months ago and have thoroughly enjoyed driving it around
the car is completely standard in every way (or was) with 2 previous owners and 89,000 miles
just missing the front ash tray a broken rear light and a missing door trim, even has the original tape deck

the day i picker it up


next up came a set of 16" compomotive cxn splitrims from a ford as they are 4x108 fitment to which i fitted a set of avon zzrtyres, a set of new rear lights from luxembourg at great expense also fitted

i have always admired sport quattros and this is the main reason i purchased this car after seeing lwb kits on cars and finding a supplier in latvia



















anyway my delivery turned up which consisted of front and rear bumpers, wings, sill extensions and complete rear panels

the arches are seriously wide

That's going to look the nuts. What's the quality of the panels like? Going to need much trimming and fettling?

Awesome!

. That's going to look mean as once done. Looking at the width of those arches you better measure the garage doors to make sure you can get the car out

Quality look pretty good unlike some fibreglass stuff iv seen in the past
As for fitment time will tell
I hope to have the body work done sometime this summer coming
Then later in the year will be engine upgrade time for some decent power
Urs4 or s2 5 cylinder 20v turbo

Fantastic - can't wait to see it done!

Cool project

Are you going to keep the CXNs and rebuild them with massive dish?

I am undecided on wheels at the moment, I may build up the cxn's but also change the inner barrels so they are not silly wide and have a wide outer dish
Original sports are a 9" rim

Good luck Trev!
I know youv`e wanted one of these for a long time and knowing how you don`t hang around when you are on a mission this should be great.
