CupraStoo's Mk4 Beefa Cupra 20vT *ITS GONE!!*

[CupraStoo]

What trend?

its a revotec, measures in bar

it will be relocated into one of the vents, but i want the vent to remain functional
the surround for the gauge will be going satin black too soon, hat the silver trim

Did the Rear end today

Painted the S Badge Black
De-Wipered
De-C U P R A'd it too

Easy half hours work!

who says getting the boot trim / boot latch handle off is hard!

 

[Joens]

so how do u remove it? (the s-badge)

 

[CupraStoo]

ok

remove the rear boot trim
remove the electrical connection to the rear lock mechanism
undo three nuts
pust the badge out of the car along woth the mechanism

once its off, pull the black portion (bit with bolts attatched to it) and it will seperate from the rest
then push the pin out
and the badge/spring mech will be in your hand
if you look at the back of it, the badge itself will unclip
hope that helps

Not for me. Each to their own though.

 

[CupraStoo]

i may put the cupra back on, but in black

 

[Ad Lav]

Hmm, not sure I like the black badge, would have looked better being grey to match the inner bits of the lights?

 

[CupraStoo]

well im hoping eventually to get inside and do the internals, and the grey bits on the bupers black too

 

[Ad Lav]

Might look ok once its all in black - less is more

 

[CupraStoo]

aye, thats the plan

getting a smaller front plate soon

not sure what to do with the bumpstrips
colourcode em, leave em, remove em??

i like the idea of black doorhandles though

 

[Ad Lav]

It'll look like you've attacked it with a black spray can

Leave handles red... colour code the strips though.

 

[Joens]

Hmm, rear lights really makes the black s-badge look bad. Didnt thought of that. Get black rear lights and it will match

 

[CupraStoo]

yeah i must say im not overly keen at the moment, hoping it will grow on me

mebbes

Rear black badge looks wrong.
Colour coding (red) maybe better.

When did stu get banned??

When did stu get banned??

Everyone seems to be getting banned tbh.

Not unless he's changed it so it looks like he's banned? Doubt it though.

 

[m0rk]

short term cooling off ban. He'll be back in a bit.

That's not the appropriate attitude Ad Lav! I should be a Moderator.
