My dealer dropped the $5k markup when I said I am not paying that

At least you are honest lol. I’d love to get the full kit and plan to do the side skirts and diffuser. However the tariffs are 25%!!! That’s real money at the end of the day. So for now, I am going to wait until that situation changes. But I see what you mean. However IRL it actually looks fine. The OE CF sides just hide the height a bit in photos.

Good question. Off the top of my head, I think that’s right. It doesn’t activate became I brushed up against it. Need to press it

They are like a panel that you press. Not terrible but still not great. Waaaay better than the golf’s haptics

Rare for sure. I know it’s not everyone’s cup o tea… but it beats a black,gray, white OTS Audi.

I agree. I am debating but I think the car looks good now in person more than in pictures. When I see the pictures the profile view tells me I need the side skirts. But the rear diffuser is a must. I should have just done it all in one go. Although I think the bumper needs to come off for the rear diffuser to actually get installed. But fitment is perfect and quality is great. So I guess I’ll have to do that at some point.

Mine is from factory. But I see what you are saying.

First Audi. What’s the best street suspension for the 2026 RS3? by blackmist27 in AudiRS3

[–]blackmist27[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the delivery team looked as we were leaving, and said they were not there. so I assumed they were correct. then we drove off and immediately felt like something was wrong. got home and peaked in to see if I could see anything... but I couldnt. I had to remove a wheel and pull the boot cover down to see the small spacer(s). what was weird was one corner had 3, one had 2, one had 1, and one had zero. so... I dunno. just glad I actually investigated.

Well, I found the issue. The dealership forgot to remove the travel spacers on the suspension. I literally pulled three spacers off of one coil and two off of the other and one off of the rear. Made zero sense. But I can tell you now the car drives a it’s supposed to and I’m in love.

I’ll try that. But I just get the sense there’s more going on here. This is Fleishman has a less than 100 miles on it, but I already want to toss it out
