Features and Construction

Built from authentic carbon fibre, this side cover combines strength with minimal weight. The chrome matt finish reduces glare while maintaining a premium sheen. The leather knob adds a tactile element that complements the interior materials.

Material and Build

The side cover is crafted from carbon fibre, known for its stiffness-to-weight ratio. This material provides a solid, rattle-free fit. The leather knob is securely fixed and offers a comfortable grip during gear changes. Each panel measures 15 cm by 8 cm with a thickness of 3 mm, ensuring it sits flush against the gear head.

Size and Practical Fit

Designed exclusively for the Audi S3 8P DSG gear head, the side cover aligns with the original mounting points. Its compact dimensions make it unobtrusive while covering the key areas prone to wear. The panel is lightweight, adding negligible extra weight to the shifter assembly.

Uses and Placement

This accessory serves both protective and aesthetic purposes. It sits directly over the gear side area of the DSG shifter and is suitable for daily driving as well as show applications.

Event or Professional Use

For car shows or interior detailing, the chrome matt carbon fibre finish provides a distinctive visual upgrade. The leather knob complements factory leather trim and adds a tactile improvement that professional drivers or enthusiasts will appreciate.

Everyday Home Use

In everyday driving, the side cover protects the plastic gear head from scratches caused by rings, keys, or routine contact. The carbon fibre construction resists fading and maintains its appearance with minimal care.

Benefits and Buying Value

This side cover offers a practical way to personalise the interior while protecting the shifter. The availability of five style options ensures you can match your preferred look.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

The carbon fibre material does not require polishing or special treatment. A dry cloth wipe keeps the chrome matt finish clean. The leather knob may be conditioned occasionally with a standard leather cleaner to prolong its appearance.
