Very nice looking "lower model" mind :D

I really like the SX wheels, I used to own a 1.2 12V 3 cylinder beast SX!

You do stand a good chance of looking like a pillock with rally-slag mudflaps though!!! :D

My mate's 6ft 9ins tall, so he can get away with that sort of thing without fear of anyone calling him a pillock. ;)

A word of warning if you are ordering them from SEAT. In the accessories booklet, the part numbers were mixed up and the fronts were given the same number as the rears. That was the pre-facelift model though, so I'd assume there's a new parts list for the 06 onwards version.

Out of interest, are these an easy DIY fit? I refuse to pay £100/hr or whatever to have them fitted.

The Seat ones I bought were fairly easy to fit (and were quite cheap).
IIRC the rears required the wheels to be removed to give enough working space, I think the fronts I got away with steering the wheels slightly. It was a while ago though.

As Ed mentioned, there's pics on my site, if you look at the first car in the gallery (used to be my car) you can see them on the top photo.

I thought they looked fine, gotta help protect the paintwork on the sills/front doors from stones / tar etc. They won't reduce much of the crap collecting at the rear of the car though.
