Default Confused about A3--newbie here

So ive been looking through the 2012 A3 vehicle and i can't find any bodykits for that year...everything i find is 06-09- what gives???

Also i can't find any performance parts since I'm new to the EU market...i built scions before this....so what comapnies should I be looking at?

One last thing- what are the differences between the 13 and 12' models??

thanks

the cars after 09 had different shaped bumpers that were hard to attach body kit pieces too. you could get a body kit where you change out the entire bumper -- like the oem s3 kit, oettinger, etc.

i'm sure they have the same companies in the EU as they do in the US. you should look at apr, revo, awe, stasis, neuspeed, h&r, kw, eibach ---- there's tons of aftermarket companies.

i don't think there's much difference between the '12 and '13 models. i think the '14 is when the total redesign is coming.

Thanks....i heard that the fenders are different from pre and post facelift so even a complete bumper change might not even help me in the solution
