JMS has come up with a tuning kit for the new Audi A3 that liven things up a bit with this rather boring hatchback. Styling-wise, you get a 279 Euro add-on front spoiler lip which can easily be fitted to the stock bumper – apart from the S-line models – and a new set of wheels. The wheels and the lowered suspension not only improve the looks, they also contribute to greater handling.

For the suspension JMS has gone for the KW V1 inox coil over kit which drops the car rather substantially by 50mm lowering at the front and 45mm at the back. This suspension kit costs 1049 Euro. As for the wheels, original Italian 1-piece super light OZ-Racing ultraleggera wheels are recommended, preferably in black. They measure at 8 x19-inch with 225/35-19 tires, and run for 2599 Euro a set.

A nice and simple package then to improve the A3 and adds some sportiness to its German blend of practicality and reliability.
