The stock downpipe is already a tight fit... I’m scared to fit a 3 inch one

BIG THINGS HAPPENED THIS WEEK HERE'S THE UPDATE!





Went for German Tüv and everything passed for the inspection part of it... but murpheys law kicked in as soon as they pulled it around for the tailpipe sniffer test the check engine light came on after being gone all week for the front O2 sensor... pissed me off hahha...

So then i told them ill be back in 1 hour and ill go change the part.... or so i thought

changed the part (which wasnt easy being the 4wd model) and then my 800lbs gorrila self broke the battery clamp bolt!

Nevertheless i finally fixed all and went back to Tüv!



This time passed with flying colors and got my plates!

My car is a Leon (Cupra) 20vt4 so unfortunately all of my wish plates like [KA 1M 1] etc were taken so this was my last resort plate choice! still not bad...

The Mrs. let me watch GT racing at the kitchen table to celebrate the passing which was amazing and happens only once in my lifetime hahahahaha

At work today got a super steal on an OPTIMA YELLOW TOP BATTERY normally 250 euros got it for 20 euros the guy thought it was completely shot... when in all reality just needed to be brought out of the deep discharge state it was in! MEGA SCORE!

Also got my CUPRA R front bumper ready to start doing the large mouth mod at work on my lunch break!

Are you sure you can’t? It’s pretty hard here in Germany, you have to show there is no spot for it... as when you do the big mouth mod there is no space anymore... then I had to measure the area that is available and prove it to them. On top of that it’s only allowed if it’s deemed too expensive (over 150€) to convert your car to allow a normal plate.

so how much did you drive allready? :cheeky:

Only 10km hahaha but soon I’ll be taking her out for fun drives! For the moment it’s nice just to see it outside my apartment and I can start working on it at home anytime I want! Some things to do before taking her out for back road driving... because when I drive I drive 110% or 10% no in between
