Eventually I managed to get my hands on a genuine S3 bumper and in this video I take you through the process of fitting one of these beauties to a bang average A3, including the little speed bumps along the way. Leave a comment below if you like the video and give it a thumbs up while you are there because the end result is unreal!

Your videos are teaching me so much mate I’ll be sticking around for a while 🤝 I did comment on your A3 servicing video asking for a spark plug tutorial but if you could include that the next time you do it or something I’ll appreciate it, thanks :)

@matimcfetridge 3 года назад

Love it mate! Thanks for watching 👍🏼 this is a diesel so no spark plugs unfortunately!

@akaleoh 3 года назад

@@matimcfetridge LOOOL I didnt even know that was a thing I thought everything had spark plugs, no worries

Now just need a big turbo, down pipe, upgrade hpfp, s3 injectors, and manifold and a tune. Then some bigger breaks

Hi Mati. Love your vids. I love the rear spoiler you have on this. Do you know where you bought it from or have any vids of you fitting it I ca t find it ???

Hey Mati, watching your videos from Spain! You know the OEM reference? I want to replace my rear bumper and will help a lot! Keep pushing like so much this tutorial about our AUDI A3 8p 🙌🏼

Afraid I have no idea on part numbers mate, try a site called 7zap! that should hopefully help you!

Great job I’ve just done my mirrors like you and thinking about a front bumper and grill next 👍👍👍

@matimcfetridge 3 года назад

Front bumpers on my list but they arent half pricey!

@bfinal91271 3 года назад

@@matimcfetridge Yeah I know what you mean. I’ve also wrapped the B pillar covers in carbon because the paint was pealing. Cost less than £10 for both sides.

On the outside? Have seen people repainting them etc!

Hi mate what's the difference in the S-Line bumper front and S3 bumper does the facelift model

@aaronbrown3748 2 года назад

looks awesome, by any chance you wouldn't know the part numbers for the 2 door rear bumper and valance would you? trying to find one but having trouble finding the part number

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

Hi mate, certainly do remember you! Ended up costing me a lot of money by having a sit in yours, hunted down a set of Scirrocco seats for mine within a few days afterwards haha!

@nishadylan 2 года назад

Inspiring videos dude! I've got a A3 8PA sportback but someone decided to cut out a massive chunk in the rear diffuser for a towbar. Not sure whether to just replace the rear diffuser for a better one. Is there much difference between an A3 vs S3 bumper?

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

They are all interchangeable mate, aslong as you get one for the right number of doors!

@deathbycake6969 2 года назад

No way XD I have the same issue on one i brought, it wasn't a blue bumper with black diffuser was it lol

@nabzr3774 Год назад

@Mati Mcfetridge What did you use to stick the aftermarket rear parking sensor trim on to the new bumper so they can hold it well?

@ap5194 Год назад

I've got the audi a3 8p 1.6tdi. Looking to make it a s3 replica. Do you think an s3 bumper will go straight on?

@chrisrogers10 2 года назад

Hi mate I have an Audi A3 8p s line 5 door in white and was wondering where you can get a bumper like this one? 👌🏻

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

I usually get in contact with breakers yards. Specifically ones that deal in VW/Audi 👌🏼

@ioanjones7107 3 года назад

Great video mate! Car looks sick👍 I’m currently after a bumper for my A3, are you selling the old bumper??

@matimcfetridge 3 года назад

cheers mate! Yeah will clean it up and sling it on ebay in the coming weeks more than likely!

@HussRana 2 года назад

Loved the video! Question: Would this bumper fit on a A3 8P pre facelifted model? (04 plate)?

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

Sure would mate, rear bumpers are interchangeable between model years on the 8P. Aslong as its 3dr or 5dr

@georgeandrianos4383 8 месяцев назад

would that bumper feet my audi s3 2008 model cause i need to replace the one i have now and i cant find anywhere a rear bumper diffuser specificaly for audi se, everything is for audi a3 so plz i would apreeciate the answer

@burntoffering5983 2 года назад

I needed this,, do you know the bumpers and grilles that were on the 2004 models can they be swapped for the 2008 bumper or later?

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

Believe rear bumpers you can swap as you like as long as you stick to 3/5dr. Front wise I believe you have to keep to pre/facelift unless you change the wings/bonnet/headlights too!

@user-sj1mw1mh1v 2 года назад

Okay, so I've seen somwhere in the comments that on the none S-line bumper you can replace the rear diffuser from standard to s3 and there's no need to buy a whole new bumper. Is this correct? I have a black trim where the diffuser is meant to sit which looks like it can be seperated from the bumper. Not too sure.

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

My old bumper was s line so cant help you with this Im afraid, it does ring a bell though as some of the bumpers come in separate parts. To be honest though the full bumpers arent that expensive, go watch my latest video for a price breakdown on everything!

@MrFakeownzjoo 2 года назад

hey bud, I have a 2006 A3 8pa and i want to put an s3 rear bumper aswell. Do you know which year s3 will fit my car? thanks

@matimcfetridge 2 года назад

I think any year will fit but make sure you get a 3dr or 5dr rear bumper depending which one you need

@nickushev 3 года назад

nice vid, I’ve got an A3 5 door and want to get just the diffuser of an S3. Will it fi lt into a standard A3 bumper or?

@R26HMD 3 года назад

You’ll have to get a complete s3 sportback rear bumper

@nickushev 3 года назад

@@R26HMD cheers mate

@matimcfetridge 3 года назад

R26 Knows it mate, supposedly if its non s line then you can just get the diffuser, depends whether your current bumper is one or two parts… mine was one part
