Genuine spoiler and side skirts arrived today. Got them at a bargain compared to the normal cost of them. Just need to get them painted and fitted, before and after pics to come when it's done

Got them from Mercadolibre (mexican equivalent to eBay) for about half the price of the dealer which is around 62 pounds.
The Part number is 5F0061500041 but they are for the Left-hand drive Leon, maybe you can use the part number to track down the RHD version.


Also, I just destroyed a left-front tire earlier today at blazing 3mph in a pothole that was just repaired two days ago and today was hidden under a puddle. I'not happy at all

I deciding to give the car a quick detail before autumn and winter is in full swing. Didn't have the time to clay bar unfortunately, but gives me a job for next year!

Nice finish!

I gave mine a well needed clean today and noticed a 5p sized car park style dent in the passenger door not noticable until up close but still annoying.

Also seeing more and more stone chips on the bonnet. Has anyone applied some sort of protection to stop this? (although it's too late now anyway)

That is the only infuriating thing about giving them a good clean and detail, you start to see all the dents/chips/scratches on the bodywork that have appeared since the last clean!

You can't tell in the picture but I have awful stone chips on the front bumper and unfortunately when I polished the car, it has left the chips with white polish residue in them making them stand out even more!!! [:@]:censored:

Your car is looking very smart too mate.

Is the wrap easy enough to apply?

I can't believe how many stone chips there are, and the paint seems to flake too. Much worse than other cars I've had.

Not done it yet but if its like the other wrap i have added it will be easy but I will get round to that next week hopefully. In my case more speed and looking for country roads that i can test the car on add to the chips.
