Re: Audi A3 build
I cut this tank off a contractor air compressor and welded on a couple fittings

I rolled some stainless straps and attached latches and hinges

I don't have the optional 6-CD changer, so I was able to utilize this space


And you can't really see it here, but the E-level ecu is in the "cage"

I located the controller in the arm rest

Install a nutsert

And install a bag

Connect the bottom end

Connect the airline

And you're done

Here's a decent pic of the front bags installed, along with new rotors and pads and painted calipers and stainless lines

I installed the front E-level sensors like so

And for the rears, install more nutserts

Install the sensor

Plug it in and you're done

Here you can see how I mounted the tank with the straps I mentioned earlier

And the compressors were also mounted with nutserts.
I painted the tank

It looks like the pads got sprayed too, but it's grease.
I polished the wheels

Made some hard lines

Put the lip kit on

Cool wagon. How high up can you raise it for bad roads?

Ay Shaun I think it goes higher than stock. Unfortunately, I didn't measure stock. But just eyeballing it, it's pretty close to stock at least, but my highly calibrated vision says higher than stock.
These two photos demonstrate the difference between all-the-way-up and all-the-way-down:
