What a fantastic fr it really is a credit to you. White and black for me are the best ones.
I have just got a grey fr and Im thinking of doing a few bits to it. Where did you get the door sills from as I think they look a lot better then the chrome ones?

have neglected this thread so thought i would update after having a good weekend at a local tuning companies rolling road day.

before i begin id like to reply to the above 2 posts and say the sill guards were purchased through a member on here and the vinyl was through ebay

Now for the fun stuff lol

Heres a link to the video i took of my car on the rollers

Made a very inpressive 185.9bhp and 286.7lb/ft of torque standard and i now have a figure to work on and improve come the time for a DPF delete! :D

Will get a picture up of the graph soon!

Kool ive got K&N Filter , id be happy if mine got 185

~28lb/ft more of torque than the book figure iirc which is around 258lb/ft...?

I was pleasantly surprised :) I had a feeling she was a good going one in the back of my mind but i put it down to wishful thinking most of the time :lol:

thanks everyone! :D

@ flappy - Ah the mini, where to begin :lol:

Lets just say she's nippy... MOT was a few weeks ago and she had to be tuned away back down again to pass the emissions ;)

She's no motorbike engine though... thats the real dream :drool:

Love the sill guards!!! I have found some FR logo stickers online 220x40 in size. My question is will they fit on the sill of a FL Leon? I don't have the car yet but want to get the stickers in advance.

Thank you in advance to the person willing to measure their sill for me:thumbup:

Finally just a few more pics thrown in, sorry about the lack of tyre slick/polishing & waxing she has since been given a full detail for the summer! Shows the new stance after i got the coilovers sorted out and raised the back and lowered the front to get it levelled out.

Future plans include the use of carbon fibre vinyl (not on the roof), brake caliper's painted, S badges painted possibly de-badge or paint the rear LEON and front splitter.

Damn... u have ur fr looking pretty much exactly how i want mine to look!! I have changed my pillars too and dropped it 40mm till i can get coilovers and am planning to spray the bottom centre of my bumper soon! I'm also looking to get the cupra front splitter

Any way to my question... where did you get your rear spoiler, i'm looking to get one a bit cheaper than straight out of the dealer?
