Hi there,anyone converted an 04(pre facelift) into a s3? I've done the side skirts and mirrors,easy! But the front I know is an issue being an 04, Hofele is the way forward but exspensive. will the rear bumper fit? Has anyone done this,please help?? cheers

By 'converted', do you mean sticking the bumpers etc on to make it look like an s3, or do you mean changing the engine and running gear to make it perform like one?

Why not trade it in for a proper s3?

Hi well I've got plans for the 3.2 and love the v6 note but love the look of the S3.Can't afford to buy an s3 and then play with it. Front then rear bumper to be done but I don't no anyone who's attempted this on an 04'.I kwow that hofele do the front end so that's ok.I'm thinking that the rear bumper should fit the a3? Mm,hope so!
