When i'm not smoking around an empty LDN town working, I have managed to fill the Top dash with a cover, Its a concave shape and not easy to get straight, Hence the need to then cover in my Fav Tartan Fabric to "lose" the lines...its on hinges so i can store at least something. :D ...as you were

Acquired, via a friend who works for Audi an RS3 exhaust with sound flaps to fit better around my rear 4 motion running gear. So some further mods required to the R32 rear bumper i.e to blank off centre twin outlets and create 2 new side oval outletsImage

@hef355 when i was an audi tech we changed a few of these rs3 systems, was a known issue of rattling on cold start up from the flap mech/pivot. Non got sent back and chucked in the scrap. Heartbraking as there very expensive but do sound the bollocks on the rs3. Hope you get it all fitted up nice man

@Crazy7ony that’s exactly how this was acquired buddy! Yes, a common problem at idle as you rightly say which makes sense on the slightly lumpy style tickover on the RS 5 cyl engine. Hoping it will be a little less rattly on the smoother 3.6 V6 ... thanks buddy
