I am just a regular guy that has a passion for cars, some may say an obsession. I have started this youtube channel to share my passion and bring you along the way as I modify my cars into something different.
Currently I have an Audi A6 Avant that is an Ultra Black Edition, it is my daily driver and work car however stock is never enough for me, I hope you can enjoy watching my journey as i modify my Audi and eventually get more project cars on the channel.

Setting a colour scheme for my Audi A6

FINALLY!!!!! I return from a long time of not uploading.....I have a lot more content coming over the next few weeks. This video sets a precedent for an accent colour coming as this car progresses starting with the brake callipers. In the next few videos there are physical mods and a lot more exciting content.
Introducing my Audi A6 Avant
zhlédnutí 1,1KPřed 3 lety
In this video I show you my Audi A6 Avant and explain when my intentions are with this channel. You will see the Audi get cleaned and a short walk around of the car.
After 20 mins of watching this the least you could have done was show the finished result!
Hi, where abouts did you buy the grill from?
Just off eBay mate
I have the same car, I’m sorry but the grill is nasty IMO
Do you know what size inlet the tail pipes were mate?
Hi mate, can i just ask what tyre sizes and wheel specs you were running here? Is you car on stock s line suspension? Looks bang on 👌🏻😎
nice one mate ! I'm trying to sort out this same fitment look for my Audi. Do you the full specs on your Rotor wheels ? size/width/ET. Cheers mate !
Hi mate, they are 255/35/R20 with a 20mm spacer in the rear and a 25mm spacer in the front
hello, what size are the new tips? I want to change them too, but I don't know what size to put, what did you use?
The tips are 4” Miltek tips
I have Audi A6 2012 and i want to change aswell the tail pipe….so what i need to check????
Couldn’t you use your original emblem holder?
You got a link to the grill ?
anyone know where i can find some lowering springs for my 2010 a6 tdi, ive looked on a few websites but cant seem to find any
H&R springs for the win.
How big was your spacers I’m looking at 20mm
Hello cars looking well. Can you tell me what make spacers and size and what make coilovers did you go for ? How’s the ride now after fitting
you stopped uploading. What happend mate?
Did you want me to start uploading again?
@@TomDyeYT sure. Was interesting to see where this build goes
I mean everybody have personal preferences.. but that hideous green? Rly man?
Any problems with your pano roof leaking
No, the only issues I have come across is on occasion the sun roof doesn’t want to close, I need to clean and re-crease the runners then I’m sure it’ll be fine. No leaking though
Great grill got the same car same colour was quoted nearly £200 to fit but after seeing this I will be doing it myself
What width are those spacers mate?
25mm on the front and 20mm on the rear
Worth going 15mm on the rear to keep the low but avoid scrubbing?
Référence
This looks awesome! Is this a 2014 C7 facelift or pre facelift? Are you planning any interior mods?
Thanks bro, it’s a pre-facelift, I am planning on a flat bottom steering wheel and I have paddle extensions on it now.
@@TomDyeYT Sounds good! Look forward to the content.
Does it sound different
Hi mate, any chance I can see your rear set up ? I have bought yellow speed racing coilovers and can’t for the life of me work out how the rear coil goes onto the body. Did you keep the upper spring rubber in place ?
Yeah you keep the top piece as that slots inside the spring and is used as a locator at the top of the spring to the hole in the car if that makes sense
Looks sweet, can I ask what size spacers have you got on the front and rear ?
I am running 25mm on the front and I have gone to 20mm on the rear
So how did you fix the logo to the grill? You said adhesive, but it looks like you are screening it on?
I screwed it on, you can get a grill with the emblem embedded in it but it wasn’t available when I bought my grill
@@TomDyeYT ah thanks. I’m looking at grills and most have a strange mounting for the logo. Not like the original.
@@erwindegier7797 you can find them on eBay with the emblem embedded, they are on eBay for around £150
Hello my friend, do the wheelspaces cause any problems ? I’ve had wheelspaces on the front of my audi a6 c7 and my steering wheel started shaking after driving 110 km/h
No issues from mine, were your spacers hub centric? If not that could have been the issue, also as my spacers are bolt on spacers not bolt through spacers that helps with the stability of you go over 20mm
@@TomDyeYT thanks for the answer, I have Original AUDI wheels. Which wheelspacers could you recommend me ? I’ve got the 313 hp Audi A6 Avant Version. I also wanted to lower my car.
Have you got a link to the black badges? How hard are they to fit?
My car is the ultra black edition mate, it came with the optional blacked out badges
However you can buy them off eBay fairly cheap
@@TomDyeYT ah ok cool. Mines black edition but didn't have black badges.
Pro sport coilovers. I know you look low but do they go much lower? Even 20-30mm more. Thanks
Yeah they do go lower but it wouldn’t be drivable due to rubbing, they are sat nearly at the highest the rear would allow here so yes they would go lower
looks really good... i'd like to do this my 2014 a6. what year is yours, and how did you fit the front camera?
Cheers bro, mine is a 2014 as well, it’s well worth it. You’ll spend a little bit of time adjusting and tweaking your heights to get it to where you want but once you’ve found where you like it then it’s all worth it. Front camera?? I don’t have a front camera buddy
@@TomDyeYT huh that's weird i thought that was standard... it's the front parking camera... anyway thanks for the reply looking to try to swap my grille this summer. keep up the good work!
@@bigwass cheers bro, the sensors are standard but I don’t have a front camera, only a rear one. The Grille is 100% worth it. Cheers, new content coming soon.
This the way how to fuck up a nice car mate. Green audi badge😆😆. If you noticed the right exhaust tip was hanging more them the left one.
The green isn't for everyone but it can also be changed easily back to black if I want to however I like the green. As far as the exhaust tips go it may have been the angle of the camera but I have looked at that multiple times and they are even
My bad mate i thinks it was the angle. So what did you do with the rs grill did you fix the emblem holder on it
@@rsnatersen5643 no bro, I screwed the original badge to the grille, the emblem holder stuck way too far out and looked stupid, £50 wasted lol.
Was adjusting the height of the exhaust tip easy? I've got stock exhaust tips but my right one sits lower..
@@chrisbees85 I didn’t adjust the stock heights of anything, I just cut the stock ones off to fit these ones so therefore I can just adjust these with the clamp I used
Great video, the agent looks amazing and so much better with the mesh grille, looking forward to doing this to my audi
Hi mate, looked at these coilovers myself but whats the ride like on them?
Alright mate, they are really nice to be fair, you wouldn’t notice much of a difference from stock on normal driving and it has improved the cornering. They are not firm at all so sometimes you’ll feel them be a little bouncy but overall worth the money for budget coilovers
@@TomDyeYT nice one...cant believe how cheap they are thats why i was wondering what the ride was like, its same price if not more for just H&R lowering springs. Im on 21's 30 profile so want to drop it slightly
I had to make a tool for my top mounts some reason as you was an Alan key and a bolt on my A3 1.8t was a pain in the backside but now I have tool for life especially for VAG that I’m probs never gonna use again hahaha great job on the videos dude keep up the good work ! Peace and love from old pal DINGER ✌️
Cheers bro, yeah I’m glad I had Bert to call on as I would have to have made something as well lol. I hope all is well with you bro
@@TomDyeYT always good to have someone who knows what they doing save a lot of time haha and yeah I’m good man thanks for ask, you’ve always convinced me to buy a a6 avant soon so I will be in contact for some advice on tips and tricks in the near future 🤣
Of course bro, I love my A6, I am getting a project car later in the year but no spoilers on here haha, you’ll have to keep watching 😜
@@TomDyeYT hahaha got it I will keep my eyes pealed 👍✌️
