I know I've been slacking a bit on the picture side.

Anyone that doesn't know I bought a written of 2.0l 8v Cupra and was planning on putting it back on the road

Update :)

Had new windscreen and side windows fitted about a week ago. All the panels are painted and on the car. Just waiting on the de-badged grille to arrive.

Piccies:

I had the orignal splitter smoothed into the bumper and also bought the Leon Cupra R additional Splitter and had that smoothed in too.

Nice work Hayz. You should have smoothed off the front numberplate recess as well while you were at it. Still looks absolutely spot on tho, so very shiny. Definitely needs some new wheels and lowering a bit next. But not too much as your LCR splitter will catch. Had to take mine off after I lowered my car :cry:

Thanks guys :)

Too much work smoothing the number plate recess in, When the number plate is on It'll look fine :)

I will lower the back more then the front if I do anything. :)

Yeah new wheels too, one day in the future. Looking at some Team Dynamics but heard so many bad things about them, So compomotive's are the way forward.

Getting my rear 1/4's painted in the summer :)

That they are very very bendy.

One of my friend's had a set a few years ago, never hit a curb or a pothole. But the tyre was leaking and he took it into a garage and they said the tyre was fine but the alloy its self was so bent it was letting air out as the tyre wouldnt fit on the rim properly.

Although that was years ago, they might be better condition.

I've managed to talk myself out of the Pink wheels they are doing and going for black or white set.
