Hi all,

I've had my Leon for just over 2 years now and the time has come to start making some changes, so below is a list of what I'm planning.

Interior
Stainless Steel Inner Guards
5 Speed Leather Gear Knob
VW Golf MK5 Pedals
Carbon Vinyl Sill Covers
SeatCupra.Net Stickers (Of Course:))

Exterior
BTCC Body Kit
18" Black Alloy Wheels
Leon MK2 Twin Exhausts
LITEC LED Tail lights (Courtesy of Dectane)
Aluminium Wing Mirror Caps
Black Gloss Wrap the Roof
LED Number Plate Bulbs
Lowering

Engine
REVO Re-map
K&N Panel Filter

And that is as far as I've got so far. Any idea's or suggestions would be fantastic.

I've just installed my MK5 VW Golf Pedals and a TDi Footrest Plate.

Turned out to be a pig of job but got there in the end. I've also changed my Number Plate Bulbs to LED and its looks sweet, I would upload a photo but I don't know how to cover my REG without ruining the picture.

(P.S I know my car interior is absolutely disgusting, it is due for a clean on my next day off. And I've also ordered some new FR Floor Mats.)

Cheers until next time.

Done pretty much all of your plans so have a look and see what you think before you go ahead with it :p

Greg.

Loving all the work you've done. I'm still toying with the idea of either a full BTCC Body Kit or FR Front and Rear Bumpers.

I'm looking to change my front grille, was it difficult to paint Gloss Black?

Think he did it himself, but I'd like to know how easy/hard it is?
I want to do mine aswell and quite a few people say its because it's a large area, did you remove the aerial base?

No it was really simple. Just remove it from the front bumper then split it and paint the bits you want :)

On another note, who done your roof wrap? I want to do mine but not at £150 or something ridiculous for what is essentially a big sticker!

Cool, I might have a go at painting it. Regarding my roof, a mate and I wrapped it. I bought some good quality wrap from eBay. Well worth having a go yourself, just for the achievement and also it is a hell of a lot cheaper. Will need 2 or more people. And make sure you give the car a really good clean. Just don't polish or wax the roof. Any other questions, just ask.

It's not the easiest job in the world, but you just got to be patient when doing it. Yes I did remove the Aerial Base. Funnily enough that was actually the hardest part.

Received my VAG-COM Software today and with the help of the VAG-COM forum and GrahamFR I managed to make some good changes.

Here's a video of the changes.

My latest edition to my car. I know this item is a bit like Marmite, but I only purchased it to serve a purpose.

And my FR Front and Rear Bumpers will be on in a couple of weeks:D
