The Audi TT, TTS, and TTRS have always been at the forefront of style and precision.
Their sleek design has made them a crowd favourite among Audi drivers, but for many owners, the stock model just isn’t enough.
Whether you drive an MK2, or MK3, there’s a ton of potential to make your car stand out and perform even better.
From front grilles to upgraded exhausts, there’s a modification for every TT, TTS, or TTRS driver out there to make their car truly unique.
Exterior Styling Mods for the Audi TT / TTS / TTRS
The Audi TT’s design has always been one of its biggest strengths with an instantly recognizable outline. But as with any car, the right exterior upgrades can change the look completely, and separate it from the stock models.
TTRS-Style Honeycomb Front Grille
The front grille sets the tone for your entire car, and the TTRS-style honeycomb grille for the MK2 models completely transforms the front end.
These grilles feature a hex design inspired by the RS lineup, giving your TT or TTS a tough motorsport look. A gloss black finish complements any color, and the fitment from GCA is designed to be seamless with no trimming or modification needed.
Carbon Fiber Mirror Caps
Carbon fiber mirror caps are one of those upgrades that are a small addition to your car, but can sometimes make the biggest difference.
Designed to OEM specification for the 2008-2015 Audi TT, TTS, and TTRS, our carbon mirror caps feature a sleek, high-gloss weave that adds a touch of luxury to your.
They’re lightweight, UV-resistant, and clip on using the factory mounts for a perfect fit.
Performance Modifications for the Audi TT / TTS / TTRS
While the TT range already has some serious performance under the hood, there’s always room for improvement. A performance modification is designed to enhance what is already great about the Audi TT, TTS, or TTRS, and take it that next step further.
Here are some of our favourite upgrades.
Valved Sport Exhaust Systems
If there’s one upgrade that completely changes how your TT drives and sounds, it’s a valved sport exhaust system.
A stainless steel valved exhaust system is engineered to deliver the best of both worlds: refined cruising and aggressive tone on demand, with a valved system that you can turn on and off at the click of a button.
- Valve switched on: You can keep things civil for your daily drives.
- Valve switched off: Unleash that raspy, turbocharged soundtrack the TT deserves.
Every exhaust system that GCA stock is built to bolt directly to the factory mounting points, with options for chrome or black tips depending on your preference.
Downpipes & Race Pipes
For owners of newer MK3 (2016-2023) models, upgrading to a high-flow downpipe is one of the most effective ways to improve performance.
Downpipe upgrades are a natural pairing to your sports exhaust system upgrade, especially for TTS and TTRS builds running turbo setups.
A downpipe upgrade will help the turbo spool faster and bring out a deeper, more aggressive tone.
Cold Air Intakes (Recommended for MK3 Models)
While not listed in our current MK2 lineup, cold air intakes are one of the most effective supporting mods for the newer TTS and TTRS.
By giving your engine cooler air, you improve the combustion efficiency, which helps you get a better response from the throttle and turbo sound.
Combine your intake with an exhaust, intercooler, or downpipes, and the car will feel completely different.
Which Parts Should You Start With?
If you’re after something that will make your car turn more heads, it’s hard to go past a honeycomb grille. They’re affordable, easy to install, and they instantly change the look of your front end - giving you what feels like a brand new car.
If it’s performance you’re chasing, a valved sport exhaust is a must. The ease at which you can go between cruisy and powerful is second to none, and they will make your TT drive as if it’s a completely new car.
What is the Best Mod for your Audi TT?
If you want the most out of your Audi TT, TTS, or TTRS, combining a few of these modifications will get you the best result.
Combine a front grille with some carbon fiber mirror caps to get a sharp, RS-inspired exterior.
Or pair a new exhaust with some downpipes to get a deeper sound and throttle performance.
Whether you’re upgrading an early MK2 8J or the latest MK3 8S, the right aftermarket mods will completely change your experience behind the wheel.
