Always love seeing 2 RS3's side by side.  ... you lucky guy!! 

[Sonnybo55]

Cheers mate, love the 8p especially after seeing the 8v at goodwood, I wasn't impressed was hoping for more presence,i may still order one but will wait till I've seen a few on the road. I am interested in a suede steering wheel with the gearknob and handbrake, any advice would you guys go for that?

[Roy]

One member on here who had the suede pack had a lot of grief with it I recall

Wasn't it Muzza80 ??

Was it that the steering wheel aged prematurely?

[Muzza80]

Yeah I had bother with the suede wheel, handbrake and shift knob that was originally fitted to the car, basically after 9k and 18 months from new it looked terrible.

 

Fair play to Audi, after moaning about it a bit they replaced the lot for new.

 

Had the new bits about 6 months now, used daily.      Looks as good as the day it was fitted, just keep a little suede brush in the glovebox and give it a good brush up every week or so, comes up a treat.    Maybe a bit anal but I also keep one of those little alcohol based hand sanitiser pump bottles in the car and try and use it as much as I can when getting in the car, removes all the oils and dirt that your hands naturally have.

 

It's a nice touch, just takes a little maintenance. 

 

If you were going for a re-trim I'd opt for Alcantara over real "back of leather" suede though, it's more durable and easier to keep clean tbh.

Thanks for the advice pal, I'm thinking about ordering the bits direct from Audi. I think they are around a grand, hope for a small percentage off as im in the trade. Booked the Daytona in for the technique full detail at midland car care will put pics up when done.Also just put my sepang one up for sale check it out its on westsidetc.com, my family own the place.
