Awesome wrap, spot on colour combo...except the Duck tail spoiler in carbon would been better in gloss black to match rest of trim bits and roof colour just looks bit odd with only this one part in carbon 🤔 but top job overall 👌👌

Yep! 100% agree. I think it's also just a little too big for the S3. An M4 style ducktail would have looked much better, especially in Gloss Black.
Liam’s going to find those ditches even faster with those land sails 😭 looks sweet though, nice work!

The ls588's are actually alright tyres tbf look at the ratings on them it's the 388's that are awful, used to run the 588's on a 340bhp leon cupra and it was sound , I run ps4's on a mk2 Octavia vrs tdi and all they do is light up

@@leet7031 in a round about way are you trying to say Landsail 588’s are better than PS4’s? Any serious tyre review online says otherwise. They are mediocre at best. Looks like they live up to the usual budget tyre characteristics. They don’t excel at anything, vague handling performance, terrible wet braking and aquaplaning resistance.

@@Mac_F87 aha not necessarily, just that in comparison to tyres that are 3/4 times the price they ain't actually that bad at all , if you've got a daily commuter car then give the 588's a try youd honestly be surprised at how quiet and well they perform for the price range. FWIW I'm currently running toyo proxys on my mk7 R which are a long established decent tyre at half the price of a ps4 and sticks like sh*t to a blanket

@@leet7031 my daily is an M2 so I don’t think it would be wise to try them. Reading the latest Auto Bild tyre test from last year doesn’t sell them to me even if I contemplated it. Their only redeeming quality in that test was their low rolling resistance. Usually a tyre will do good in the dry at the sacrifice of some wet grip or visa versa, they got slated for wet grip and wet and dry braking. Very strange user feedback as well, nearly an even split between pretty good reviews and terrible reviews. Slight lean towards bad though. When I bought My EP3 Type R in 2010 it came with Landsails on the rear, hands down the worst tyres I’ve even driven a car on. Quite a few times they would just suddenly let go in the wet at roundabouts or on corners, most of the time not even going fast. Probably the biggest factor on me never fitting anything with the name again. Toyo’s have been a favourite for a long time. I had them on my 106 gti back in 2003. Their main issues back then was they were soft and gripped but didn’t last as long as the premium brands. Not as big an issue on smaller less power cars like my 106 was. Although mid range like Toyo might be closer these days I prefer to pay the extra and have that bit more wet and dry performance along with wear rate. Bought Goodyear F1 Supersports for my RS3 not long after they came out. Currently away to buy Conti SportContact 7’s since the MPSS on my M2 are not far off needing changed. Would I feel the difference on the road compared to a decent mid range tyre? Who knows but I prefer to have the little bit extra wet/dry performance if needed.

I run PS4 on my s3, with the constant black circle deals they are £87 per tyre, that works out at about £15 per tyre more than budgets 🤷🏻♂️
At first wasn’t sure about the colour but when it was finished and the wheels added it works. Black was the right choice for the wheels. White would have killed the look. 👍
At first I wasn’t sure of the wrap colour… but it’s soo clean, you’ve done an awesome job once again matt! Liams gonna love it when it’s finished, until he crashes it again 😂 great vid once again though matt!
Love the colour, love the car, WHAT A BUILD!!!! 👏👏
Amazing wheel choice from you! You should get a gloss-black audi badge for the rear, so it matches the wheels/roof/front details.
You may know this now since filming the episode, but plastic bumper dents can be removed with heat from a heat gun. The bumper plastic has a memory & it will reform quite well. You may have had to use some filler anyway, but by heating the bumper first to get it to relax back into its original shape as much as possible, it will lessen the dent, & also prevent the possibility of future heat distortion, which would leave the filler showing back through the wrap. Love the channel in general, & your enthusiasm & ability to teach yourself so many skills is super inspiring.
Liam’s so lucky to have a friend like you, great work as always Matt, the car looks awesome 👍
Love it Mat. You seem truly over the moon with how this turned out! Finally got me a money pit tag and missus got me a hoodie too.. although you’re sending a bigger size! been a journey this one but this is totally come together and looks amazing. Audi badge all the way!! Thanks again and keep up the hard work your wrapping skills are being honed each time. Got to try this myself one day. Have some alloys for my golf “money pit”, just saving up for some tyres! Take care...
Colour and wheel combo is spot on. Looks absolutely mint. I’d go badgeless on the rear too.
I love that he’s helping moving the front bumper without even removing his man bag lmao 05:43. I actually love the colour, definitely stands out. The car just looks amazing. You need your drift car to stand out like that. Proper jdm style
What a transformation Matt, smashed it mate with this one, fair play to Liam as well on the colour choice👍🏻 it totally changes up the factory lines, just an exhaust & some tuning & job done 👊🏻
Never heard you be so positive about a build before - great job 👏. The satin finish is epic
Looks amazing that colour suits the car!! was that a coolant leak or washer fluid when it was outside?
So many other KZreadrs would've had this as a 10 part series, but no you all in one, so much better! Still by far my favourite KZreadr, keep it going Mat!
Absolutely awesome colour that purple is spot on. The wheels got a good design that could look great in any colour. For me they would be gold but that's because I loved using Subaru's in Gran Turismo 3 and 4.
Well done Mat! Loving this build and cant wait to see what you do with the tuning. Keep smashing it.
Great colour chosen by Liam. As part of your builds you always do a power upgrade. But should you - given his predisposition to crashing cars?
You never seem to be beaten fairplay for tackling everything possible on a car takes patience and skill 👍👍
Love the air ride on the S3! 💥
I just fell in love with this audi. Well done Matt!
Hey Matt I'm absolutely lovin' your work! The car looks amazing in the that colour wrap, spot on. I also have to thank you, after watching all your videos I decided I needed to upgrade my car and I went out and got myself an Audi S5, it's the 2007 model with the 4.2 litre V8. I know with the way fuel prices have gone lately it maybe wasn't my most clever purchase but the smile it puts on my face every time I start it up (sports exhaust is f*cking loud on cold starts), makes it worth it. You're a legend, keep up the good work and I look forward to your next videos.

Very nice car mate, congratulations. And your right, the way fuel prices are going 😂😂
Awesome colour and wheel combo. Agree with the last comment, the carbon spoiler isn't in keeping with the rest of the car.😁👍
Can never go wrong with a hyper silver wheel - the black hides how nice this wheel actually is.
*The choice of colour on this is just amazing seeing Matt wrap so many cars has really made me want to learn how to wrap I can't wait until I one day have a garage so I can give this a go* 😍
looks 10/10, just needs an audi badge on the back imo
🙌🏼 looks class, another one smashed Matt🔥
I still hope they will add aftermarket ambient lighting
Great job Mat! Love your vids, keep em commin’ mate! Can’t wait to see how’s the c63 is gonna turn out🔥
I also thought bronze wheels would look great, before you even pointed it out. These ones, however, also look great nonetheless.
The wrap and wheel combo is straight fire 🔥
The wrap makes the lines on the car look amazing. Needs an epic exhaust next!
And with a Nice set of finest Landsail ditch finders fitted he will defo crash that 🤣 probably under braking
At last been waiting my Sundays complete great work mate
OMG, what a transformation, the colour is spot on and makes it look awesome. Love the rear spoiler and the wheels too. Can’t wait to see the rest of this build 😉👌🏻👍🏻
That wrap colour is fantastic - brings a whole new dimension to the shape and sculpture of the car's design! :)
Liam will deffo be getting his Hoop smashed in driving that motor especially with his special sticker.👍🏾

Awesome wrap followed up by Landsail tyres! 😱🙈 Meaning less grip to aid Liams next crash! 🤣
Awesome colour, loved the wheels too!
You have amazing taste, you blow my mind with every build, and the s3 looks so good great job 😍👍 Edit: I would put the Audi and s3 badge on in the front and the rear but looks good without also 👍

You’re honestly very talented, Mat! Well done 👌
Real stradman vibes here. Purple car, almost white wheels, “WE’RE BACK”. Love the video’s matt 👍🏼
Mat. I have to hand it to you. That is one epic build for Liam. Pure hard work and talent on show every time
Liam is one lucky guy! Smashed this, the colour and wheels are unreal. Excited to see what tuning plans you have for this
Looks better than I expected as said it really brings out the angular lines of the car. Definitely needs the rear Audi badge. Also door shuts wrapping, new or cleaned exhaust tips and some decent tyres 🙈 wouldn't go a miss.
The color looks great. 💜 You did a good job Mat. 👍
That wrap colour is absolutely brilliant! Car looks amazing - well done mate
As usual Mat you have not smashed it but obliterated it out of the park! Liam is very lucky to have a great friend like you.
Love the color! The wheels look mean as well. I would go badgeless on the rear, looks 🔥
Carbon spoiler needs to be gloos black to match the rest of the kit. Looks really nice 👌
Love the wrap colour sick little be worried the spoiler may come off as you glued it on to the wrap and not the body directly, I say this as it’s happened to a friend of mine, with time the spoile will become loose
The colour is awesome and the wheels are absolutely on point. 🔥🔥
Mat the modding maestro,mad outcome!!
Smashed it again. Looks so clean! 👏🏻👏🏻
Wow. The purple makes it look 10x better! Great vid
That wrap emphasises the curves looks sweet
That spoiler makes the rear 1000x hotter, it's so nice.
Awesome build and amazing wrap colour, I would have personally wrapped the door handles black to break it up and match other black bits
God it's so beautiful and since he didn't go with white wheels he could always add a big break kit and paint them white or even just the stock breaks for now that would look fire in my opinion 🔥🔥
This wrap looks insane!! Absolutely love this colour wow
Brilliant as always, you just keep knocking it out of the park 👏
That colour is amazing! The whole car is spot on 👌
Nice job Mat , once more well done mate !!!
That colour looks sweet everything looks great together another great build your smashing it with these builds mate 👍🏼
What a craftsman you have turned Mr Armstrong..great colour, thinking of wrapping my TT in that colour.
Best decision yet on colour! 👌🏼👌🏼 but cheap tyres AGAIN!
That is the best yet Matt ; love that purple. Looks sooo good with the black wheels. I think you should auction this car off and get another for your mayte - after all he is going to crash it!
Recently sold my S3 and seeing this has made me wish I kept it! What an amazing colour, wow. Smashed it!
That wrap looks amazing! 💜
11/10 as usual you've picked the right colours and wheels. Top work!!
Spot on, love the look and at least it’s a future feature car to make more content when Liam stacks it😘
Could I suggest a mod series you do for this car and a few of the others that you could do a learn with me or POV series, so I think you should do a digital dash for him, and maybe led ambient lighting and upgraded infotainment
Wheels would of looked better gold or bronze as the only issue with black wheels you loose the size of the wheel with the tyre being black also, wrap colour is spot on an would leave it debadged! Awesome build!👍👍👍
Looks amazing 👏 that spoiler really suits it 👌 keep up the great content
Mat, I love your videos. You really have a gift for wrapping cars and you did a great job on this one (the color looks outstanding!). But in all sincerity I think you'd do Liam a bigger favor by giving him a month of driving school instruction and a Mercedes 240D Automatic. We hope he is able to stay safe with his awesome new ride and that any mishap is a single car wreck.
This has to be one of the best wrap colours you have done car came out so well love how it's looks
Watching this build form beginning to now, mite be one of my favorites, knocked it outta the park with this one!!!!!
Landsail tyres 😳 Like the colour but paint over wrap every time! Cool to see it finished
Color absolutely amazing! Great work with the car!
Colour and rims look sick mate 👍🏻👍🏻
When you pulled the wrap out of the box I thought it looked vile !!! But on the car with the gloss black inserts it looks awesome but for some reason I really felt like a chocolate bar after watching this vid !!!!
You’ve absolutely smashed it out of the park again mat the colour 👌🏻
I love the colour as I love dairy milk 😂. Should go for the wrap on the front badge and gloss black for the back. Needs a nice loud exhaust but I know that will come. Love the content! Really want to get a project but need a bigger house first
Looks amazing matt. Well done 👏
He'll crash it a bit quicker with those ditch finder Landsails on it.
Can't wait for you to rebuild this again in a few months!
Love the colour, awsome choice, GREAT BUILD
Congrats dude you’ve done it again…loving the style… duck tail looks mint 🔥🔥🔥
That's a lovely colour, one of the best you have done
smashed it !!! It would look epic with some minimal rear light tints, just to take the edge off the red against the wrap
Fabulous work on the S3 looks mint! I would go for blacked out badges Matt 👌
Another great build Mat, The car looks amazing , the wrap colour is spot on , and the maxton kit is the icing on the cake. Liam your a lucky boy 😀😀
Absolutely banging colour and another awesome build...more of this please...😁
Looks insane needs a private reg with 3d gel plates to finish it off 👌
Superb build, Liam needs to show it love and respect and keep it in one piece. Love the car though 👍
