INSTALLING A TTRS BODYKIT TO MY STOLEN AUDI TTS 8J

[@Chris_Slix]

Thank you everyone for watching! Some of you commenting seem to have forgotten that this channel is all about DIY jobs and learning to be able to do more and more myself in the future with increasing quality as I learn. Everyone has to start somewhere and you guys are on that journey with me! Merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone ❤

Brilliant job on the bumper everybody got to start somewhere good content

Keep it up Chris. Easily one of the best KZbin channels out there in this area..👍🏻

How many subscribers to do the cheapest RS6?👀👀👀🤙

[@Chris_Slix]

@@matthewbonner645 enough so i can afford one in the first place 🤣

[@jaswili]

Wish I had the money and space to do what you do, keep it up this is where Mat started. There will be highs and lows and lower than lows, but it will get easier

[@TheDevilVaper]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with putting higher spec bumpers on a lower spec car. As long as you don't badge it up as something better than what it is (just like you said you wasn't going to) then it's all good 👌👌

[@ramondijkgraaf3805]

was just thinking about putting an r8 badge on my tt, gues that won't fly then?

[@bamber119]

This is the project I’ve been waiting on Mat Armstrong to do. I know he did up his last TT but felt he could go further now that he’s more experienced in doing up cars. Therefore You’re doing gods work son. 😁

[@roger7244]

Your car .do what you like and if it makes you happy go for it and don't worry about negative comments. Well done

[@leo2502]

Putting the body kit from a ttrs is NOT the same as upbadging! This looks awesome, keep it up. OEM+ modified cars are some of the cleanest cars from enthusiasts.

[@shane23245]

Not sure if you’ve seen before… full red lens film looks good over the rear lights. Brings it up to date a little. I done it on my old TTS

[@bangarng]

Looking good. I feel you on the brakes, that clip is stuff of nightmares.

[@jaswili]

I like how it’s coming along,when you change the front bumper save time and upgrade the intercooler

[@pezza2834]

White calipers look good chris👍everyone goes with red calipers with black cars so nice to see a different colour than the normal good job 👍

[@Chris_Slix]

Thanks buddy!

[@ChrisWijtmans]

i thought red would look good because of the wheel caps but maybe not.

[@pezza2834]

@@ChrisWijtmans I think chris is having the wheels Refurbed so the red center cap will probably change colour?

Looks good , wrap either a bright orange , black top , or yellow with black top .. had my Porsche cayman s. Done orange with a black top black trims on mirrors and spoiler

Keep it going mate! It’s your car do as you please! At the end of the day it’s free content and people shouldn’t moan! I like the journey I don’t have to like every preference you have!

[@richforster5741]

Had same issues with my Cupra front calipers, impossible to fit the retainers without force which damages the paint 😢

[@testdriver8475]

TTRS Diffusor fits only on TTRS rear bumper. Other rear bumpers do NOT have necessary fixing points. Sorry camera moves to fast that anyone can see what is important fixing exhaust blenders at diffusor and bumper.... Thank you very much for this video. Greetings from Germany.

[@lewis4336]

Literally just watched hamzas ttrs/caddy video 👌 you should deffo try grab his front bumper, well done with the tts coming along nicely, can’t wait to see it finished

Bit of fun Chris, ignore the negative nellies in the comments. This is you mate… “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

[@cutler65]

Looking great. Can't wait to see it all finished. 👍

[@richday5520]

Hopefully tr Hamza can help you out with the bodykit and spoiler at a good price aftermarket parts are so hit or miss with fitment/quality. Lose the badges altogether imo but looking good 👍👍

[@kevinpontin764]

Your tts rear bumper is the exact same as the ttrs bumper, only the diffuser is different so you could still use the old bumper if you swap over the diffuser

[@Chris_Slix]

Haha wish i knew this before! Ahwell i can sell the tts one now

[@kevinpontin764]

@@Chris_Slix I've got a replica spoiler on my TT from AliExpress for £200 and fitted it to the lifting spoiler. Disabled that spoiler by unplugging it. I was charged a fortune to get it sprayed and fitted though.

Smashin it with the content! Good work.

[@andytite7703]

Hi Chris don't go for aftermarket on the spoiler the fitment will be terrible, I got lucky with mine and picked up a genuine ttrs for my 3.2 v6 tt and drilled the original spoiler and bolted it down, then I coded out the active spoiler with a obd 11. Fits better and none of the original seals etc are disturbed etc. Plus don't you remember matt with his spoiler all those videos ago lol 😆 love the content

[@alhutchinson8277]

alright mate theres a white trrs breaking on eBay sure the front bumpers still available price was 1400 when I asked about week ago

[@Sagittari9999]

Those red wheel center caps are ruining the black and white combo on the car. So if you have some white paint left, I would paint them. I am looking forward to next videos, keep it up!

[@Chris_Slix]

Yeah i dont like them either, or the alloys being black for that matter 😅

Just don't put ttrs badges on it 😉 tidy car, video quality is really good quite enjoying watching

I’m debating putting a RS rear bumper on my 2008 TDI (Quattro), but I’m worried about the TDI having a single exhaust and how it’ll sound if I cut the end off. Do you think it’ll be possible to upgrade to a twin exhaust plus an RS bumper?

[@kaydenslevin4848]

The trick to doing body work is to apply more filler than you you need and by that i mean spread it over a bigger area as when you sand it down you take off a large amount of the filler you put on it and when painting you always want to key the area as it will lift off and start peeling over shiny paint you can use a grey scotch brite or a p800 sand paper when it starts lifting the wrap will also start lifting as it wont have a proper area to stick to

[@Chris_Slix]

Thanks kayden! I prepped the surrounding areas with 400 grit wet, will that do the job or is it likely to cause problems?

[@kaydenslevin4848]

@@Chris_Slix in a body shop we can finish on 400 but on a da and certain colours but we are going for a finish that wont be covered with a wrap but it should be fine for a wrap as over time it might shrink back and start to show prep marks through the paint on the rougher grits but a wrap should cover them and stop them showing through

[@brun_s]

@@Chris_Slix ideally you want to 400, 800 and finish it with a 1000 for a smooth finish mate… on light colour I’d say go as high as 1000 then a quick 2000

[@Chris_Slix]

@@brun_s think your on about the flatting and polishing buddy 😅 we are on about prep

[@brun_s]

@@Chris_Slix at Aston Martin when the cars been primed we use 400 then 1000 finish in dark colours and 400/ 800/1000 on light colours like silver, sterling green etc as the lower grid paper will leave prep marks like scratches etc.. on painted (basecoat- top coat) cars 1200/ 2000 dry, 3000 wet and polish.

You didn't need to use a filler with that . What you should have used was a stopper , Holts knifing stopper or carplan cellulose putty its used for scratches or using on the top of the filler to take out all your scratches . Quicker easier and cheaper with a much better finish

Not enjoying this build Chris, the car is old hat, ten a penny on the roads, so to stand out it has to look very special as all TT's look the same no matter the spec. How have you gone from an Aston to this? The van you did, I get as it was your van however, to move the game on you really need to step it up.....perhaps it would have been better to do the Audi before the Aston. The white calipers look tacky, very Essex boy racer look.
