Hi guys,

Any ideas on some (hopefully) cheap modifications I could do to the car? I'm 17, 18 next week, and looking into making my car look better! I've always loved cars and now I have one I'm so excited!

It's a Leon 1.2 TSi S, 2010. I don't think any performance enhancements will be made, although maybe looking into a custom map as Big Fish Tuning in Stokesley is just a few miles away.

Obviously as you can see I have changed the alloy wheels and put a nice new set of 17's on, they have Pirelli zero rosso tyres, bagged them from a SEAT dealer off ebay for £540 :D

Thanks,

Sam :)

If you dropped it, changed the front and back bumpers to Fr with the diffuser and r32 exhausts, would look so sexy but so suttle

Fr front and back bumpers. Btcc spoiler and side skirts. Eibach sportline lowering springs. Lcr front solider. Refurb the alloys goss back. Vinyl wrap the grill gloss back and tint your headlights :) maybe a cheeky map will give you an extra 20 ponies ;)

Here's hoping that the insurance company doesn't sting you when you tell them about the mods. Remember that ALL modifications should be reported to the insurance company!

the insurance company are aware that my wheels have changed to alloys instead of the original steel rims. If/when I make changes the insurer will be made aware of them! :)

Hopefully I won't have a crash, or no one will crash into me and then blame me, as i am only 17! My premium was £3550, thats with voluntary excess at full, as well as the compulsary, so an excess of £1200! :(
